Some great colors in this thread.

I didn't see any Cobalt, Maritime blue or Amazon green. Although I think Amazon is a bit more common.

So sky1jord youve never seen a Porsche 964 speedster never mind one with a hard top fitted.
Car is standard except for bilstein ps009 kit and 18" rims.

Yes, I have. They all remind me of this:

But then again, I'm old enough to remember these beasts.
And in any event, we all have our own opinion, a partial reason why Porshces were made in so many colors.

Another shot of Emerald Green metallic to complement Hueur's handsome '74 (?)

My wife's funky '88 targa, paint to sample, factory delivered with chrome trim and cookies. Emerald Green is one those colors that looks very different depending on light and setting. I never get tired of looking at it. Or posting pictures of it :)
