Looks like Signal Green. Either way a nice car for someone though a black interior would have been better.

Interesting rare color, however I think it may stop him from getting the $28k he's asking...

IF I weren't C2-jaded, (and not in the market) -- I'd be haggling with the guy over this one.
A potentially nice, little gem.
Bottom engine cover still in place?
Sport seats not mentioned?
Engine bay looks maintained, not detailed.
(Agreed, black interior and he could call his price.)

CO is an active region, centrally located. I wouldn't look to this lasting long.

Really? I sure hope so, its sad to see these cars sell for so low a price. I've seen some great cars with lower miles for less money. There are probably those looking for a rare color that would pay a premium but those buyers, in this economy, are surely going to be much harder to come by?

Great rare, unmolested, enthusiast car. I hope it finds a good home and he gets as close to his price as possible.

Not just Sport Seats - heated Sports Seats. Like a Unicorn's horn...
I could live with Tan... With that mileage, maybe only just a tad high - but a nice example for someone wanting an early C4.

Love the color. It reminds me of a color that Triumph had in the TR6 line called "Java". It was extremely rare in the TR6 range also. Very cool color.

Oh man. That's The One. An actual 964 in speedway/viper green. I'll add that he's got the properly vented distros; always nice to see that's been taken care of. A good sign.

I made an offer on the car today but it was too low. I looked long and hard. Tan interior, I'd need a real push, C4, damn, but.........sporty's, and that wild factory Viper Green........ I think $28K is too high though.

I need to find a photo of our long-since departed '77 911S targa in that same hue. As eye-catching as it gets.

Mike- that's one wicked looking avi you got there.

+1 on liking the car and color a lot, but black int would have been WAY better. My wife calls the biege color "cat puke". I'm not seeing the distro venting, as indicated above. A full engine bay shot would be better. Wait- maybe just maybe there's a second more aged looking tube right along the bottom of the picture.
