What about Nougat Brown? This seems to be a love it or hate color with no in between. I've never seen the color in person but a friend told me if there ever was a color that could hurt value, that would be it.

Could you imagine a fluorescent green and yellow train wreck of a Porsche? Or grey or black or white mixed with one of your fluorescent colors, or whatever color it is you guys happen to use from game to game. I don't think anybody even knows what Oregons colors are now. I don't even think Oregon knows.

My favorite of my two mid-years (the one I should have kept), but I'm reaaly happy with Polar Silver on my 993.

Many called it a "deal breaker", while others have said the color was beautiful and rich. Dr. Porsche came up with it and painted his 928 in Sepia. Considering the pallet of colors now coming out, I would have to say that Sepia Brown has been a classy color.

Recently sold my Ruby Red Metallic 997.1 Turbo. Absolutely gorgeous color and one of the reasons I purchased it in 2009. Silver, white and black are all just so common.

Unfortunately, it was harder to sell BECAUSE it was Ruby Red. I might not have gotten more money for a more common color, but I'm pretty well convinced it would've sold faster.

And you know how he came up with that color?! Dude dropped a deuce, looked in the toilet, and in a moment of twisted inspiration based on being pissed off at the many design limitations put on him by governmental regulations, as well as owners' sick idea that the as-delivered, neutered cars should be kept that way, said, "yep, that'll look good on my cars". True story, and something Dr. Porsche regretted the remainder of his years!

I've contemplated rare color combination vs value for years. I think my car is beautiful but you have to like 80s colors, some do some don't.
