Only time will tell if I bought a lemon, but I would still like to thank all of you. Your input, advise and eveluation made it easier to make the decision, and I feel so much more confident that I made the right choice. What a great forum/community this is! A special thanx goes out to (sorry for sounding like an Oscar speech) P356GT (Per). The car came from Per's home country Sweden, and he helped me track down the registration and thereby the previous owner who only had good things to say about the car.
The car will be stored in a garage along with 10 other 911's (140 cars total) until May first, boy oh boy that's gonna be a long time waiting! Even though 4WD and snow is a good combo 
Besides working as an engineer I am a freelance photographer mainly shooting cars, so expect a lot of pictures https://facebook.com/fluxdonphotography
So we have a winner :-) You will not regret it and you have gotten some more information about its state and history. We could try finding some earlier owners to get more of its history Do you need some chains for those winter tires? I guess you really want to use it now when the snow has finally arrived ;-) Goe Helg Per

Hi all,
Just noted that there's a thread on Amethyst 964 so I might as well continue here.
I have always been a fan of the relatively "safer" colours e.g. midnight blue, polar silver (or even guards red / speed yellow for the brighter colours). However, recently I have come across Amethyst more and it started to grow on me. Just not sure what do you think about this colour? Kind of tricky to go with a 30+ married guy
and potentially more difficult to get a repaint than the other more popular colours?
I have come across one with a light grey interior and a black dash. I have always been a fan of and is looking for an all-black interior but somehow this light grey colour combo goes well with Amethyst. What do you think - and I suppose it's much more difficult to keep the light grey seats in good condition (as opposed to black colour - any scratches or paints are less obvious?)?
Cheers
Nelson
