I just happen to like colors Other than R, S, & B, and I am happy to see you agree.
When I bought my 964, the dealer that I bought it from stated that nobody wanted this car due to it's color... The color was the first thing that drew me to the car...

Jay, that is a gorgeous color and while I can understand people not being in love with lime green or signal orange, I would have thought yours had broad appeal?!!?

Tay, when I lived in Seattle I used Squires in Bellevue. They are a no nonsense shop. Worth checking in to. Whereabouts in Seattle to you live. I lived on 169th St SE in Bellevue near Lake Samamish.

Howard: Thank you for the compliment. I do like the color quite a bit. I remember the saleman 'warning' me a bit before I drove the two hours down to see the car for the first time that the color was not a typical color. They took the car in trade in June and didn't have any real interest in it until I bought it in late October of that year. They blamed the color for part of the lack of interest.
