One man's meat is another mans ....



Or even more salmony



Can't beat a bit of Coral Red either :





Of course all these colours work on a 964 because they're intrinsically "cool" cars, whereas on a fat, bloated 991, well, not so much ....

I quite like the jade interior too. Whilst paint colours are personal I think I'd probably buy any colour if everything else about the car was right.

Smurf blue is favourite though.

Coral Red is superb on that car isn't it....would work anywhere near as well on a 991.

Didn’t craig (?) who ran the crazy yellow turbo race car have a coral red 964?

I was offered a turbo bodied cab in the same shade from someone years ago too when I was trying to buy a 964 speedster that I couldn’t afford.

A still think polar silver is the worst getmecoat bonus points if it’s with metropole interior.

That'd be Sepia. A proper retro colour :

Craig always talked of his being "Candy Apple Red", but whether that was his perception, or a special colour, I'm not sure! The car was a limited Edition, so maybe, maybe not!!

Excepting that turquoise interior all are OK in their own way. I guess it's difficult to have a bad colour on a 911, was going to say "shocking pink" but even then I can imagine that looking ok on a 964 Turbo!
