Default Prussian blue OB spotted in Englewood Colo.

Very nice looking, pretty sure on the color. Anyone here? I'm new to the area and looking to meet up with with other like-minded folk. Let me know! Been here two months and this was the first 928 I've seen, emissions testing guys say they never see them come through the shop.

Default We shoudl make a Denver Meetup


My 86 is prussian blue, but it wasn't me. My car has been hiding in the garage the last week or so up here in North Denver and I've been driving my old Fiat. I've seen one or two 928s about but not gotten to meet owners. Now that the C&C up near Lafatyette appears extinct there isn't another enormous regular get together. We should try to create a 928 meetup later this summer.

Prussian Blue is a bit hard to pin down because the metallic carries so much ambient color and is dependent on lighting.

In this setting, the same car looks nearly black...

Go figure!

The breakfast club is a nice meeting of about 20 members. However since Merlin left, the 928's have been parked. In the three years I have owned my 928, I have never seen another 928 at a PCA event. Members talk about there 928's, but never bring them out. I've seen a few at car shows, and usually see one about twice a year. When I went to get emissions this year another 928 pulled in behind me. We all joked at the odds of this meeting. I would love to have a meeting of 928's. Maybe in the mountains, or this event would great to attend https://carsandcolors.com/.

We have a group in Colorado, the Rocky Mountain Sharks, that used to be very active and a lot of fun. Unfortunately, it has tampered off and needs to be revitalized. Erik B takes care off the Yahoo group's account and told me the way to join is " do a search for “Rocky Mountain Sharks” in Yahoo Groups. You will then send him a request asking to join. He will ask you for your VIN and your current address and then he will let you in."
Please join and lets start having some fun.
I will also repost this on a separate thread.
Hope we can all get together soon, Ralph
