Looking for some paint color opinions

[inastrangeland]

My 1970 911 is an original Conda Green. The PO, several years ago, painted it Viper Green. The door jams were painted but the rest of the car, frunk, interior, and engine bay are still Conda green.

The paint will need to be renewed in the next few years but for now, I am stripping down the interior and frunk. The decision is do I keep it Viper Green and paint the interior bits or keep it Conda Green and repaint it to the original color at some point.

For those who may not be aware, Conda Green was only available for a couple years. Viper Green was a 1973 color and therefore matches the 73RS color scheme. The car is a 2.8L twin plug setup with a custom 901 trans. So, PO, was apparently wanting to make it a 73RS.

A few pics of current color and then a Conda Green car.

I prefer Conda or Leaf Green to Viper - just a personal choice.

Conda green is awesome. My $0.02 is that you are lucky to have that as an original color. This stuff is obviously hard to know and very personal, but I think painting that car Conda green would make you a.) love it as long as you owned it, and b.) maximize it's resale value. Some colors suck more than others, but even those can come around. For example, my first 911 was a 74 Sepia brown 911S that was painted black (by the PO). At the time, that seemed reasonable, but now I would pay more for a Sepia brown 74 911S. Blah, blah, blah, but Conda green is so awesome, and your car looks sorted and badass, so the "correct" (if there is such a thing) paint would put it over the top. Anyway, I am staying in tonight and drinking wine so please forgive my BS, but I am pretty sure I would stand behind this post anytime. You are in an awesome spot!

I like the viper green. Viper green without the yellow.

I vote for Conda Green. Can I mail it in, or do I have to vote in person?

[shamrok]

Good luck.

I like the Conda slightly better but color is a very personal opinion. My opinion, since you're on the fence, go original.

I like the Viper better but wouldn’t have changed it from original like the previous owner did

[Billthebuilder]

Nice to have a car that runs like an rs even without being painted like one. I vote viper

Conda Green is great color; I would go back to original on this car assuming you like Conda Green.

[onboost]

Yeah, Condom.. I mean Conda green for sure!

I’ve been on the fence as i like both colors but keeping original makes it more unique, i think.

Personally I prefer Viper Green BUT with that said, I'd rather have the car back to original color to preserve value. If I was NEVER going to sell it I'd keep the Viper Green, only because I love that color.
