How about Bitter Chocolate? Pretty sure most of them were color changed to Red or Black in the 80's

A great thread, worthy of resuscitation!

Quote de Jim Richards



My wife and I both wanted to say how much we love the color of your car!




I have that color on my 944S2.



That is not my 911 it is andy_roe's. I just used that photo from the thread on 928 color because of it being a 911 in what I think is a rare Porsche color.



I have seen that the Panamera comes in a color that is close to Zyclamrot.
I had an S2 cab in that color. It was interesting how depending on the light it would be anywhere from a ruby red to almost black. I was considering getting it painted a more normal color lol.

Here is my Diamond Blue Metallic 87 930. Paint code F5F5. I've had a a couple of people tell me how nice my car is, but that I should really have it resprayed in a factory color to be more correct.

Gris Argent Metallic Silver

Silver might be a common color, but you won't see another like this!

Porsche Crest

I have a Marble Grey 1985 911 that I recently had in at the shop at Mayo Performance in Euless Texas. Ed Mayo has been in the business for a LONG time and said he had never seen one that color. I'm good with that!

Maybe Mocha Brown as a least common?

I am somewhat new to the Porsche ownership world but I haven't seen any other Mocha Brown 911's except for this little beauty. Actually I'm not crazy about the color but I've waited 34 years to take my new baby off the hands of my ex step father, but I would have to guess that it's not a very common color.

Correction -Chocolate not Mocha

Oops! I stated Mocha brown but mine is actually color code 408-9-1 which is chocolate brown instead of mocha

My favorite rare color is Slate Grey Metallic. Looks blue, grey and brown. This was my former 997's color.

Porsche Crest Cassis Red Metallic

I'm going to repost my cassis red metallic. A rare color (1987 only)--it seems to change tone widely under different lighting conditions. I like it more the longer I have the car--its always a big hit at club events.
