Clear coated! He surprised me and had my latches re-plated as well. Another customer was having some plating done so he threw my stuff in with it!!

I got shot down on this forum because I liked this color on a new 997 - posters called it Barbie blue. I still think it is very cool - Congrats to you for your choice - car looks amazing.

Thanks guys, I'm so glad I went to a dealership that had all the "special" colors in one place so I could actually put eye balls on them. The voodoo was first choice but like I said when I seen the Miami, I couldn't take my eyes off of it. The funny thing is my buddies who are not in the "Porsche scene" all think the Miami blue is a cool vintage color.
Oh yeah did I mention I cant wait to get this bad boy back in my hands!

The RWB looks like Turkis or one of those minty 964 colors.

That blue looks so righteous. I want to get my car painted and change the color so badly! Keep up the great work.

10 days out from the Rolex. I'm going to go and see the car in the next couple days and drop off the last little box of parts. Just some fine tuning detail items. Can't wait to see that paint, I will take a bunch of photos.

Mitch Leland steering column bushing came in today. Will be going to lay eyes on the car tomorrow. It has to be done by Thursday night or we don't make it. From paint it goes to get lowered and aligned which will take a day. So that would eat up Friday and the car would leave for Daytona early Saturday morning for about a 2.5 hour drive from St Petersburg to Daytona.
