Get one in black and leave it in the sun for 20 years?

I agree, it's probably faded pretty bad.

It's still on YouTube. Search "Top Gear Porsche Challenge". Here's the link to the first of 3 segments. It's pretty entertaining but none too flattering to the 80s water-coolers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPuqHYjsBHw

No, that video is just the introduction. I can't find the rest yet...

I've been looking for the video for the lap for ages but no joy! Everything else is on the vid in the link except the laps.
