If you were in position to buy a 951 in 1988
 
Would you have chosen the Sliver Rose edition or have gone for a color that you actually liked?

If they offered you the ability to get the S option on any color im betting that would have been the best choice


I would have gone for a color i liked regardless of "S" option

I would go for a color I like

Pearl white!

Definitely would go for a color I liked. Silver Rose is alright, but definitely not my favorite color.

I would haven gotten the color I like. The silver rose exterior is not bad. The plaid interior is some crazy stuff.

Right now I have a Red/Tan Turbo S. I love the interior color, but I am luke warm on the exterior. I got it because when you buy use you can't be that picky on color.

I like the Silver Rose, its a nice looking color. The Silver Rose and plaid interior are part of what make the car unique. Plaid is making a comeback I hear! VW still does it in the new GTI's as well. Maybe I'm being partial cause I own one. Although, the first Silver Rose Turbo S I had, the original owner swapped the interior out for full burgundy leather. Having had both, I like the plaid.

It'd be impressive if I were in the position to buy a TS in 1988, as I was just born :)

IF I were in the position it would be Black with a dark tan interior (sport seats)

Anything other than SR or red.



Other than Blk/Blk, I would have ordered Zermatt/Can Can. Blk/Blk being my favorite.

The first owner of mine chose Red and paid over $43,000 for a non-S in '88. I know because I have the original window sticker. No way would I be able to pay that much for a car back then. The car now has 58K.

I really like Silver Rose. The name sounds goofy, but in person it's really a silver car with a pinkish hue in certain lights. I find that the curves and fender flares are more apparent with this paint and get lost in red, black, etc. As far as the interior, the style I don't mind as much as how delicate the fabric is. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...9/IMG_0724.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...wo951sside.jpg

I like the silver rose color, and would like to have owned mine from new so that it could have been better kept.

Probably Zermatt Silver or black. Silver Rose is kinda cool to look at but I wouldn't want it personally.

C ANDERSON 02-26-2010 12:35 AM

Silver Rose for me. I have a zermatt a kalahari beige and one in red. None of which would be my first , second or third choice.

Clifton
86 Kalahari 951
87 Zermatt 951
90 India red S2
