I have a 2007 Audi A4 in Ocean Blue Pearl effect, it is a really nice color. Another one to consider...

Midnight Blue Metallic is the color I'm leaning toward for my Strosek.

Now if someone can Photoshop it onto my car that would be great!

Thinking about the matte gray but maybe darker.

I would have never thought I would own a green car but when I first saw my aventurine GTS I thought the colour was amazing.

So ... I'd choose the BMW green ... but I'd prefer the aventurine over that.

I have seen his 968, it is just really full of light scratches. It should be single stage white and have life left in it.

Carl,

i'm sick of white.

What color is your interior?
Do you plan on doing a color change or are you going to keep it the same?
Your exterior choice should be made with this in mind.

I like the blues and greens you are looking at. Porsche has many nice colors over the years in blue and green.

Are you also going to have the door sills, engine compartment and all the other areas painted?

Good luck!

This is what I think I am going for



Most of this is from the shade, but What the gray is from the rear, with what would be whitish silver Cup II 993 rims such as these.

by borrowing so many things off other P-cars, it's probably the biggest poser out there. but the thing is;

so many parts of a stock 968 are '****.'

except for the lsd/all leather/993 seat options, the cars didn't sure come with much.
