It's not pink, it's flamenco red!!!

That would go nicely with the final-production-model all-pea-green 928.

The pea grean was called Perlglanz and it was OUTRAGEOUS.

That looks a lot like the color used on 968's.

Remember that silver convertible with a top that color that was in all the magazine's when the 968 cabrio came out?

Also seen here on the cutout at 968.net:

Perlglanz, huh? Well, whatever, it was, umm, not one of their better colors IMHO. Apparently had purple trim on the interior. Kind of a peas and eggplant look I guess.

Porsche steering wheel for the 993 model 911. Flamenco red leather and dark wood. This item is NEW, despite a VERY small scuff between the 1 o'clock and 2 o'clock position. It has been on display at a Porsche dealership for many years, but never installed or used in any vehicle. It has the airbag cover, but the guts have been removed for safety reasons.

Of course it was never in a car! It's foul!!

That 928 is my dream car....I love that color combo. The seatbelts were dyed to match it. You got a roll of extra webbing (who else needs that color seatbelt, right?). That picture is awful. If you have ever seen one that color you know that picture does not do it justice.

Michelle - from what I can tell they can be made to fit but I am concerned about the airbag system. Otherwise I would have a 3 spoke carbon/black leather in mine.

Its been done before, but IIRC, it sounded little involved. BTW, this wheel has its airbag removed.

I would assume any man driving that to have INCREDIBLY large *********.


Got a paint color code? Might make a nice track car color.
