Mine is Cobalt Blue (37u) inside and out. I have not seen many like that yet. The P.O. told me it was the only one sent to Canada in 1991.

My color would be rare on a Porsche, I'm sure. It's a Mercedes color, Anthracite Gray/Anthrazitgrau #172. Came from the factory, as the first ower was a Mercedes guy and this was his first Porsche.

Sorry to do this to you, someone else posted the same as cobalt when it was actually maritime or marine. This is cobalt:

Love the cobalt blue, looks awesome!

Not sure how rare my Marine Blue is, I think I've seen one other lister that has this color. Great to look at in the sun.

I've never actually seen another one in person. Expresso brown was actually the cover color for the catalog in 1988.

Anthracite is beautiful color expecially when fully polished out. Used to have a 190 in this color.

there is one here in Raleigh, I have no idea who he is, I see him once in blue moon but can't quite catch up to him, I'm usually in the mazda at the time
other than green I can't think of another color 928 that I like more

Brett Matthews has cassisrot. It's sort of a purple, plumish color. Ironically at SITM last year he ended parking to one exactly the same color as his...pretty rare..

Chaad...Awesome color interior!!! I love it!

My wine red (weinrot) 82 was kinda rare. I don't think I ever went to an event where another 928 was the same color, though I have seen a few on Rennlist.

... sorta like this??
