I voted for the blue, but after seeing the copper color I'm voting for it.... That would be quite a stand out color.

Montego blue is exceptionally hard to match (and not real desirable with the RX crowd!) if you ever have an incident. Someone else mentioned it too. If you are going to take this car to the track steer very clear of metallics and flakes, etc. Go with a base color, in this case I am all for the Bubble Gum blue.

i'm actually leaning toward white right now, anyone have good pics of a white 951 (preferably widebody)?
There is a white 951 on W. Henrietta road on the same side as the Porsche dealer about 5 places down (Near the budget Car rental sign). If you cant find it i can take some photos for you. It has phonedials and doesnt looked like it's moved in about 6 months (or atleast i havent seen it move!)

Aventura Green is rare, subtle and beatuiful and would be a good choice but for the red seats. Seal grey was my favourite but getting too common now.

The copper is sweet I'm also quite a fan of the speed yellow. However, if I end up doing major work on my present body I think I'll go for Polar Silver, the 968 color, or something similar -- one of those really deep, bring out the curves sort of silver forms.

Best Wishes,
Sach

There are two nice pix of my speed yellow cab over on the main waterpumper board, under Damian's cab with new wheels or something like that.
