From RMSothebys.com…

A copy of the original vehicle order form, dated 20 June 1972, indicates the car was specified with experimental “fluorescent yellow” paint by way of Porsche’s “Special Wishes” customization program. It also noted a 2.4-liter engine—number 6322388—a Black leatherette interior with “Pearl Cord,” and a driver’s-side mirror.

You won't have any trouble finding your car in the mall parking lot.

When I visited the factory on 1971, there were a half dozen 911s with very bright flourescent colors. The tour guide said that the German government asked for them to test if visibilty would be better. Fortunately, they didn't work out.
