Surprisingly little info about your car. There is an open campaign AT07 for a universal joint but otherwise exterior code shows as 50. All other info matches what you posted above.

I know I noted that earlier. Linen would be 550 per the normal codes used by paint shops. As I noted above my cobalt blue shows as F6 vs 37U on my CofA and factory documentation is an internal paint color code. It is marked on the paint sticker on the car as 37U and not F6. In either case it shows as linen through the factory data base.

I wonder what would happen if you tried to order a bottle of touch-up paint using code 50?
I was able to get touch-up paint for my MY92 with paint code for GP white.

Well… mistery solved.. Just heard back from Porsche. They confirmed that the correct color is Satin Black Metallic…!
They are going to update the PPS..

thank you to everyone one for their help and suggestions..!

It would be rare for someone to put on a new sticker after changing the color, and rarer still for that sticker to be so worn that it's illegible.
The frunk where the sticker is should be painted body color, and so anything under the edges where that sticker is peeled back are the original color of the car.

So clearly just more proof Porsche kept poor records back then. We have two Porsche sources saying linen. I just looked up another PTS and it came back as both 99 PTS and 00011 tannengrün metallic but the sticker claims Forest green which I believe is different.
