Pastel Yellow
Whats the general opinion on Pastel Yellow Porsche 911's? I came across a 996 with the aero kit in this color. I kinda like it and from what I've seen its rather rare. I realize its sort of an acquired taste. I have just seen internet pictures of it,so are they ugly rolling Easter eggs up close and do most folks avoid this color resale wise?

I think it depends on the car, I had a 1996 993 in pastel yellow, I loved it, saw it on a boxster and it did nothing for me. If YOU like it, go for it, that is what is important.

I assume it looks like this?
![]() I like the color. The aero kit, not so much.

I have a '75 911S that was originally a light yellow, probably similar to this color. It's been repainted black and the paint is bad. When I do get around to fixing the paint I will certainly return it to that original color, but I think it will look better in general on an old Porsche.
BTW, I talked to the original owner. He said he painted the car black in 1984 because of too many speeding tickets in the car when it was yellow... ![]() Kirk |

Kirk, Is your car Sahara Beige by any chance? I have a 74 911 that was originally Sahara Beige. I have been debating going back to this color or not. I like the light yellow on the pictured GT3 but I have not seen Sahara Beige in person. It looks to be a little different then this shade. I like the seventies hues but I lean towards the brighter colors. I have searched Sahara Beige on this website but a few of them look different. It's probably just the lighting in the pics.
