$50 if the car is in crummy condition. $175 if the car is in mint condition.

Not all too common and extremely beautiful. I loved how it changed depending on the light on my old 83. Enjoy it!

Only a handful of very late S2's were built at Stuttgart, not the Audi plant in Neckarsulm. I don't think Porsche offered paint-to-sample on any of the 4 cylinder waterpumpers except the 968 models-same thing with the Special Wishes options. So maybe a few S2's were done, but I've never heard of one.

Hi guys, I have a black 88 951S SN1691 and think I noticed another black 88 951s at ROCS Auto in NJ. If this is your whip, drop me a line.

Does anyone here have a Light Metallic Blue (Hellblau, LM5Z) 944? I've only seen one other than mine and it was in a picture. It was only available on our cars with a build date in '82 so I'd assume it's pretty rare.

Some beautiful blues in this thread. Love those colors.

I wonder if the Ocean Blue 88 Turbo S survived? Anyone ever seen it?

My '83 is Pasadena Yellow.

I've only ever been able to find pictures of one other 944 painted this color, so I'm guessing it's pretty rare. I'm curious how many that were this color from the factory have been repainted though as it is really out of place in any time period aside from the 80s.

At first I was a bit unsure if I liked it or not but now after driving it for a year, there's no other color I would want one in.

If anyone lives in the Denver area I'm impossible to miss lol.

I need to get some better pics but here is a couple cell shots:

Just curious if anyone has any pictures of:

- Azurite Blue, offered from '87-'91?, LY5D, or
- Lemon Yellow, offered in '87 only?, LMIA

I don't know about production, but I can tell you there's only one 944 in the world in Carmona Red...

A member here owned it at one point. He may still, although it was FS for some time.

Azurite is similar to Copenhagen Blue from '86. Someone on here I think has an Azurite car, I'll let them post pics.

Lemon Yellow apparently was renamed "Summer Yellow" for the U.S. market. Probably an appropriate change.

Lemon/Summer Yellow:


Apparently someone destroyed a Nougat Brown Metallic car. I've also seen a Nautic car sitting in the dirt in a yard.

Take care,
