Congratulations! What a stunning looking car. What is your interior color, if I may ask?

Thanks for the photo, beautiful build. Enjoy your car! A/G was one of the colors I was considering.
I think you chose wisely.....

Aventurine green is really awesome from the few I've seen in person. Also, quite rare. Considering it for when I get my 992.

I think a Boxster in the green with expresso interior looks splendid.. From the configurator...The green has a deeper shine than the silver.

Default Aventurine Green Metallic years '94 -- '98 911/993 series

The mid 1990s 993 series cars showed off Aventurine Green Metallic very well. .. The 993 cabriolet car interiors provided a large area, space, contrasting the Aventurine Green exterior. .. Check out several web 993 cabriolets pictured in Aventurine Green with Carrera Red or Boxster Red leather interiors. .. Hard to picture or imagine - right? .. Just have a look at a decent well taken photograph. .. Wow!

Having started a Boxster 4.0l build spec.myself, the Porsche AG contact hasn't responded to a query of an exterior in Seal Grey or Stone Grey Metallic LY7U with Light Grey-Beige Leather interior. .. Depending on the heart-a-tack PTS cost, shifting gears to an off the shelf GT Silver Metallic would suit just fine.

Are there any of you or a few holding off until the 4th qtr for the PDK availability?

Default Aventurine Green Metallic is not Party Atmosphere Casual . . . .

The Porsche exterior paint color Aventurine Green Metallic in generic parlance is grey-green metallic. .. The 993 series cars offered Aventurine Green Metallic as a Tier 1 paint option in the years 1994 & 1995. .. Back in the 993 days, Aventurine Green Metallic sales were comci comca. .. It's been described as an elegant light grey-green metallic,, which changes character in accordance with ambient light level.
