In that case, paint it Go-Mango!
Better yet, what about Go-Green? I've always liked that one (never knew what it was called, though )
Seriously, I think a 968 would actually look good in a lime green, although it would be...different.

Signal green is pretty close to Green-Go (also called Sassy Grass by Plymouth). Here is a Signal green 968 in Europe. None were sold in North America. next to 968s, I know Mopar muscle pretty well, especially Challengers and 'Cudas.

I guess guards red is jealous of go-mango, that's why it always tends to morph into it.
Signal green is sweet, one of my favorites, but there are a few colors I like much more.
There is always the one in england that got painted Lamborghini Miura (the new one) green:

Yes it will devaluate the car. A lot. Don't do it!
Wrap do not paint !
But the bottom line is, will the car be more valuable to YOU with a new color?
I wouldnt go with a crazy color, i would go with a kind of Audi TT aviator grey or something like that. But I'll see, i'm going to see a paint shop next week, I'll decide there...
Pic of Audi Aviator Grey:
997 Sport Classic Grey:
The manufacturer to Porsche of this colour is Glasurit in Germany and the paint code is L63A FYI - It's a flat none metallic colour with a clear coat finish
Do it before I do ... and if you need more encouragement then check this thread by a 911 owner doing the same I just came across: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/516422-project-911-x-introduction.html (Great thread which needs updating)
Signal green is pretty close to Green-Go
tek_121 - If you need any additional help on the 997 Sport Classic Grey then just drop me a PM as I can assist with the same color match from other paint suppliers as Glasurit paints are very expensive.
For those who would like to know more about Glasurit and the Porsche Paint Schemes from over the years then here is the tool you have been looking for: http://color-online.glasurit.com/. From my understanding (correct if wrong) Porsche have used 3 paint suppliers over the years. The best way to us the color system is to type PORSCHE under Manufacturer and then sellect 968 from the drop down menu under Model.
Best regards,
Mark
