The Greenest Green 911 Ever

OK well that may be a touch of hyperbole, but when I walked into the shop, this car was up on the rack at the other end and I swear it had an otherworldly glow. I'm told this is a restoration to its original factory paint color. Photos hardly do it justice...wow! I must say I have never seen cleaner wheel wells!

I love Viper green!

To do my car over again, I'd have a hard time deciding between Viper Green and Tangerine.

Now that would be super hot! (GT3 RS)

Here are a few more pics - funny the color came out better on my cell phone pics than the ones I took with my little cam:

Here's a VERY GREEN '73S for you! A little modified.... I drove this at Tremblant a few years ago ... belonged to Paul Racine, and he just sold it to the local Ottawa Porsche dealer...



The color looks a bit different because of lighting I'm sure... but in person it is very vibrant.

This is my "Furn Grun" 78 SC... (During restoration work early last year)

Lots of mods planned but the colour stays... I really need to take some better pictures.

I have yet to take a photo where the color of my lime green comes out true... must be the white balance or something...
