Likewise! Yeah you could say the glue was a B11tch! But still the job has to be done on my own, without spending stupid money, out with the 'chequebook' cars!

Still toying with the colour!!!! The colour changes from week to week and still can decide for definate.

Viper-Signal Green
Maritime blue
Speed Yellow
Rubystone red

Boy, I did'nt think Rubystone would be that popular in colour choice! I'd have to be brave for such a colour...........but I love it though

I have a friend who has a Rubystone 965 Turbo, and its stunning! But another with a Rubystone 968, well has so much 'stick'-mockery from the colour.

Most of the RS colours are in 'in your face' but I dont know what it is with Maritime and especially Viper-Signal green is my main choice.

Not that I want to replicate a RS but I thought with Viper green darker and in-keeping with the 964, similar to Signal. But deep down, I love Maritime, but the blue is a more common shade.

I read one of the threads and his thoughts with the colours!ha:

White for the Japanese
Red for the Italians
Green for the British
Blue for the French
Silver for the Germans

Lets watch the colours go round and round Speed Yellow is lovely!

there is only one choice.... Maritime.

Booked mine in for the end of track day season next year for a full paint while the engine is out.

Signal and the minty green are also lovely.

Heres she deserves a new genuine Porsche roof from Porsche thanks to Warren and Rod.

She came fully protected, and carefully unleashed (remembering shes really flexy) by our handsome Rod....








Remembering the roof with the sunroof skin and panel was double the weight of a normal non-sunroof. Roof weighed 8kg...
