Not the rarest, but definitely not what you'd call common:

White Gold Metallic. Offered in 1985 and '86 only, at least here in the U-S...and resurrected this year as a trim color for the 997 GT3 RS!

So, out of the three 911's I have owned, probably all three would fall into the least common color 911... I guess in my quest to be different. All have the color blue in the paint description - Diamond Blue is really more grey/silver/smokey color - although it definitely has a blue tint when it's overcast outside.

First 1990 C2 Targa in Baltic Blue


1987 Cabriolet in Diamond Blue


and now a 1974 911s (Non Sunroof Coupe) in Arrow Blue

There is a 911 in my town that looks almost exactly like this one, but I think it only a 'Turbo Look' cab with BBS rims. It does look good but its not my first choice of color.

Jeremy, all nice colors.. what I find interesting is how the year has moved increasingly retro! Nice rides, all of them.
