Default Aventurine Green pics

It seems that there are quite a few aventurine green cars on this board.
when i bought mine I thought it was rare but it seems like they are all over this board. Here is a pic of mine to start aventurine green with chestnut sport seats.

I have one, but am posting from my phone and pics are a pain. I've posted several, look for the "shades of green" thread under my name.

So, how many do you figure are there with the chestnut interior? I've seen another cab on eBay, mine and yours.

How close is British Racing Green to Adventurine? There was a neighbor that had a British Racing Green TR6 that the little kids went crazy about. I was one of those little kids.

Not close at all. Not even in the same hue/color. Aventurine green is not really green.

Very nice! Another aventurine green owner here but mine has a cashmere or tan interior. I start getting confused between tan, cashmere, and I imagine chestnut is a little darker??

The first car he (Alen de Cadenet) drives, appears to be Aventurine over chestnut. Flamenco was an option too, hard to tell - may not even be Aventurine, but looks close to it when he pulls into the court yard.
The car appears to have soft back sport seats, full leather, and possible leather headliner that matches interior color. Anyway, probably a stunning, rare color combo in person:

Sorry about the typo on the spelling!
Chestnut is a reddish brown color and I will post some int pics later. I saw another 993 in my color combo in an online ad from a dealer about a year ago. That is about it that I have seen.
