The shots of the left and right side of the car are probably the most accurate as you can see the dark gray color -- with the first photo being the most accurate of them all. The other pictures kind of look black because I took the photos in the evening but the car does feel darker when the sun goes down. In the evening and at different angles the paint almost has a really cool tinge thrown in. Very hard to explain but you wont regret it. I highly recommend if you got cookies or Fuchs.

By the way, Graphite Metallic wasnt offered in 87, just 85 and 86, hence only on Turbos in 86.

Yes That was a typo.86 I meant.
When I went to the shop they only had porsche down to 87 so we had to search back a few books for the 86 to take a look at the graphite,lol.
Thank for the pictures ill let you guys know what final color I decide of course

I believe the paint code for graphite is L B7V. Here's some more pics:

Graphite people need to stick together. If Im ever in Finland, I'll stop by.

Sami951

Cool - If I'm ever in OH I'll stop by

Check out Sami's wheel collection.

Same car with 4 different kind of wheels...

Sami951

Yeah, out of which I currently only have the phone dials (and even those are now scratched).

Sucks to be me

hoffman912

personally my faves were the cup wheels (i think thats what theyre called?) the ones in this pic <img src="http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/asujamaa/oipan_tbo2.jpg" alt=" - " />

either way graphite is a stunning color for any porsche! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" />

Those wheels are 18" Keskin KT2 Cup wheels. They are one piece wheels.

Replicas of 964 Turbo 3.6 wheels. I believe Kinesis Supercups are also very similar.

jurg, graphite is a good choice. You get the good looks of a dark color, with the easiness to keep clean of a metallic finish. Ask me how I know!

Sami, any updates on your "restoration"?

Sami951

Luis, yep.. saw the car two days ago (visited the shop to drop off a paper with some nice alignment values I want). Body panels are now on and as soon as they get the fenders rolled it's ready to be painted. I'm going to call them later today just to ask how it's going... probably won't be ready for the weekend, but I'm keeping my hopes high for the next week!!
