Mint green color 968
Porsche did build a bunch of 968's in this color, I kinda like it.

Man....Porsche sure did build 968s in some strange colors. There's a guy on vwvortex who just picked up a pink one!!!
Personally.....I don't really like it. Although I do like the polished lip on the wheels....

Mein Gott!

Unusual, but very Porsche. I really like colors like P-car colors like that in some odd way. Seems like they made those for the few enthusiasts who truly can appreciate it.

It kind of reminds me of my old dentist's office. Strange, but I like it in a way.

I love seeing all of the different colors... there are some unique ones. Don't think I've seen an 'ugly' Porsche yet.

They tend to have enough character to pull off odd colors. So do old VWs and Land Rovers.

A couple of years later a friend bought the only Mint Green cab in the US, and it has the full leather interior (dash, doors, etc).

The dealer 'intro' video had rubystone and mint green examples circulating Weissach. It's fun to watch every once in a while.

The first 968 pic I laid my eyes on was a "PINK" one, pretty sure it was a cab feature in "European Car magazine" my bible at the time.

Rubystone red was the color of the 968 that appeared in Beverly Hills Cop 3. Fun fact.

In the background in one pic you can see a "normal" colored 968!
