Assuming the color in the photo is a bit washed out, it looks like Signal Orange to me.

Great looking Porsche!

We could call it Creamsickle. It looks like a creamy version of a regular orange color - looks less saturated than Signal Orange to me.

What lighting was used for the photo?

On my monitor looks like good ol' Bahama Yellow.

What's the color code # on the plate at the drivers side door hinge?

Looks to be a custom color!!

My guess is bahama yellow... but very hard to tell. Photos under flourescent lights colors can appear very different!

Don't know the color but I love it. Early Targas are pretty rare and there are none in this color. Great choice!
