I like it! There's a guy (Ed) that runs DE's with a 935-lookalike with the same paint - he calls it Purpleen.

Ed's car looks absolutely gorgeous in person. Problem is: you can't touch-up the paint in the event of a ding/scratch/fender bender.

Remember candy apple red? These multi colored paints are awesome. That 944 is amazing.

A former works for a chemical company that sells pigments, and I read companies are soon going to make multi colors optional. I think I read that M-B was coming out with a special paint.

Yes, we are - something about chrome added to the metallic paints. Gives it a deeper finish.

more than just chrome, something about the whole color changing with different light sources.

Looks like that cameleon paint that ford put on the Mustang Cobra in 1996. I saw a 911 Targa in Florida that was painted that color. I personally wouldn't do it, but it is sort of cool.

I like the concept behind the cameleon paint, but every time I see a car painted like that, my first reaction is that the car had been in an accident and not painted the same color yet...

Dupont Chromillusion. The car looks damn clean aside from the slightly "ghetto" paint.
