You know, I have a brother named Ethan.

i honestly think that is my favorite 944, it's PERFECT! (I even like the overly wide rear wheels) that color is just awesome....i could just stare at it and drool for hours...

That's not a bad idea... I bet that would be sick.

Andy Kihm had a matte black 944/51, this is the only decent picture I have of it, I'm sure you could find more by searching.


edit:hmm, maybe I can't insert an image because I am not a member?

Leave the rear spoiler black. The rear valence and sideskirts I think should be the same color as the rest of the body.

I thought that was Duke's car? For some reason, I'm thinking Nile Green, but I could be wrong. Dark green + gold accents, I've always liked. It was overdone for a while back in late 80s, early 90s (you saw it on Pontiac Bonnevilles and Toyota Camrys a lot, lol)

Here's anothe pic of Duke's car - did a quick search, didn't see the color listed (saw it once as rainforest green, but unconfirmed) but if you look for posts by Duke, should be easy to find.

Hmmm... not as sick as I thought. It looks more like primer.

I don't know...I think they must have gotten something wrong when they mixed the matte black paint because this one turned out much better...
