Porsche Crest show me a WEIRD FUNKY factory color PLS

hi there


im already thinking about my NEXT porsche (its never to early ) an most likely the 2nd year of production of the 997 turbo.. i just want them 2 take care of any problem in the 1st year and so that they have time to offer the exlusive options ie paint to sample and so on...


i need help i LOVE early pre 73 cars and mid 70's colors ie gulf blue, singel orange, tangirene, viper green but also bronze and browns ANY weird colors..i have a plane ilver on black c4s.. so my next car MUST be spl and not to plain


anyway pls post pics and tell me what do u think what color should i be thinking about??

p.s i know ALOT of people my hate this post or who just dont want 2 see a porsche or any $$ car in these colors some might think its ugly or just a waste...but pls to each his own

and dont forget these colors were the ones to have back in days

I think that any new car in signal orange or viper green would rock. Also, since you're near the gulf, you might think about gulf blue (or gulf orange, or a combination.) From the factory, that'd be pretty sweet.

I've always liked Conda green since it first was painted in 1970. It was on my 73T

I rember seing a really cool 79 Targa SC in a Lavender he told me it was special ordered from the factory. It was not a repaint. I have not seen a 911 in that color since.

OK, I'll play

here is mine, Mexico Blue from 1974.

For an SC, I would go with Aubergine.

Is that really royal blue? I always thought it was a darker color. I like it!

Hey Bill, Is that really the color of that car or did someone photoshop it? Man, that brings tears to my eyes
