Hi all,

I am new to your community but not to the Porsche community.

I used to own a 1990 964 Indian red Cab Tip when I lived in France.

I now live in NV and have the pleasure to introduce my new toy to you.

2007 997 C2S Coupe
Can't really tell the color but it is between black, grey and blue (any hints?)
Tiptronic (important for trips to LA)
S2 Wheels equipped with the 4S 305/30 size.
carbon fiber interior parts with grey interior
61,700 one owner miles.

Pleasure to read you.

Phil

Welcome to Rennlist.

Based on your description of the exterior color, my guess is that your car is Atlas Grey Metallic, which can look blue or gray, depending on the lighting. Check the sticker on the inside of the fuel filler door. It should show the exterior paint color code.

Thanks for the tip, you are spot on! the color code from the inside of the fuel filler door is M7X, which is Atlas Grey Metallic.

More photos to come when there is enough light outside.

Here are photos of the interior.

the previous owner installed a lot of carbon parts but unfortunately, the center console is cracked on multiple spots. I will have to address that. I will make a separate thread to talk about it.

Welcome! Nice car you have there!I owned a Seal Gray 2006 C2S Cab with the gray interior for seven years, and enjoyed it a lot. I wish you the same with your car.

From the pictures of your 964 I see that you lived in the Yvelines in France. My wife and I spent four years in France, two of those in Noisy le Roi. Small world, as they say.

Once again, welcome and enjoy your car.
