Unfortunately someone really wanted to get rid of the original green, the door jambs and most of the hidden spaces are painted. 20+ years ago someone did a good paint job. It is good enough that I would have not noticed except I had to get "inside" the hatch and noted some green. Then some guys photographed some stock Porsche metal and it was primered green, so I thought maybe it is primer. Finally I was pressure washing and some of the old black came off in the engine bay and yep, green. No doubt, a green car.

It is not the super dark green (oak) or the super light green metallic. That leaves only the olive green metallic. The interior appears to be cork or brown. I'm still waiting on the pedigree from Porsche to verify but that's been slow as molasses. I may be painting before it arrives.
