Default 944 S2 CAb info

I was wondering if anyone here could give me a list of all colors (both interior and exterior) that were available for the S2 Cab. Any especially rare colors out there?

Post pics of your S2 Cab, especially if its a rare color.

Cheers

What does the Panthero Metalic on the 90 and 91 look like? Don't remember ever seeing that color.

Holding back the rare colors is the fact that almost all were built at Neckarsulm, not Stuttgart, hence no Exclusiv options, no paint to samples, etc.

there are still plenty of rare colors out there. Maritime Blue, Panthero Metallic, of Zyclam-Red pearlto name a few.

my 951 was Maraschino Red Metallic with burgundy interior, which is pretty rare.

also doing a google search i found a couple rare combo colors. a Cab with a Red interior and a turbo cab with a maritime blue exterior.

This is the left coast Cyclaman Red car, the other is in north NJ, owned by a friend of mine. The left coast car has been turboed. Here an S2 repaint in your favorite 968 color. Nice cup 1's on the Cyclaman Red car! All the colors you mentioned are rare, but they were stock colors.

Mine was Charcoal grey metallic with grey leather interior. In the seven years I had it I never saw another that same color.
