I would just hold onto that beautiful Venetian Blue S4 and give it time. I love unique colors but it looks like Barney purple in real life and although very rare it is not a metallic paint like Pearlglands. It its also very flat in the light.

I love the color and could live with it. Anthony, was the 968 you mention for sale a few months ago? There was a 968 cab this color on autotrader and I sent several emails and received no response.

The car is owned by a local woman. I do not believe she is selling it but I might be wrong. AFAIK this is the only US 968 Cab in this color. The car was originally owned by David E Davis. Of Automobile Magazine fame. Here is a picture of him in front of the car. The lighting is off but it is the same color.

One complaint I know she has about her 968 in that color is it is very hard to keep looking good. She Concours the car and no matter how much work she puts into it the paint always looks off IMO.

But adding another to the stable is a different matter! My daughter wants the next one to be a 911 - especially one like the '89 Carrera I had a few years back. That car was Velvet Red Metallic with a Dark Gray interior. I only know of 2 others with that color combination.
