Default Horiazon Blue turbo S

I am curious if this is the car that was for sale for about a year back in 2005 It is one of the few horizon blue Turbos I have seen and not sure if it is the same car.

I met some people at a local Car show this past weekend looking to buy 94's. One individual claimed to know of some pristine examples one in Horizon and the other in Violet that would make the only ones I have heard of in these colors in the US.

Yes, it was James's car which I have owned for 18 months now.
Sadly, after spending a further £6k finishing the little bits off, and making it more road friendly (as in, a re-map at light throttle openings to stop it kangarooing at 70MPH, it is really an out and out race engine after all!) it looks like it has to go to fund a new family home project.
The most exciting and beautiful car anyone car anyone could wish to own, and one I thought I would be able to retain for a lot longer, but family does come first (I have been told!)

Please PM me before it goes to JZM and gets sold to god knows who.
I would prefer I passed it on to an enthusiast!

That makes the third one in the world I have come across with black interior. Mine included. Not common to see black usually grey or some other color. $223k Is a strong price hope they get it.

Cobalt is still a rare and very cool color. I have seen a 997TT in Cobalt and it looks really great.

997 cobalt is different mixture. It does not color shift the same way the earlier cobalt did. Still a great color and they charged nearly $4k as an option. I have been told that cobalt and Speed yellow are two colors Porsche will never use again something to do with the modern water born paints.

Yep that would be cobalt over black so #4 so far.

I am not liking the black 930 style stone guards though.

Thanks for the picture I will add it to my records.
