Best 964 RS Colour?

[GT6 Jonsey]

Bright Yellah for me, a bit CTR yellow bird but quite suits the car I think

Maritime Blue.

JZM had this lovely 964 RS recreation in last year...

If it was yours would your REALLY have a speed yellow porker though? I mean, REALLY?

Are those speedline split rims on it too? Nice bit of dish but i dont think the budget will stretch to proper speedlines

Yep its definitely got star quality without being too "look at me"

[mechagran]

Ps have you seen the price of the Rs leightbau (s) JZM have at the moment! Dont get me wrong lovely car and im wuite happy for 964s to be "dragged up" by their lighter sportier cousins but that is just ludicrous money!

They also recently sold a "horizon blue" 964 Turbo. Why anyone would buy such an insipid coloured car (especially a wide body) is beyond me. That baby would be getting a mexico Blue wrap pronto-saurus!!

Yeah REALLY speed yellow is no more in your face than viper or mint green

I think as shown above, any colour looks superb on a set of Speedlines to be frank.

Agreed, which is why they are about £4 grand I think. Would love a set but for £1k the veloce split-a-likes are not unnattractive especially at that price. Keep the cups for the track!

not a 964 but i miss my old 2.7 - Mexico Blue (correct RS colour for 1974 and 1975) on RUF Speedlines

Speaking of Ruf..



They have had some lovely colours over the years. Dark green is a personal fave of mine- perhaps not on an RS, but on a Carrera or Turbo, oh yes!

My old RS-a-like in speed yellow


(One for the crappy private plates thread-& miss badging cars too!)

Oh & don't bother with veloce fake speedlines, they're made if cheese & last about as long.

Don't agree - had my reps on for years and they still look superb. Would love a true set but just can't justify that sort of price.

Your wheels can't be worth 50% of your car can they

Any of the bright Porsche blue colours would be great. But make sure it is a proper full respray and not a dodgy wrap. A 964 does not deserve to have scalpels and plastic tat dragged all over it!
