Says the man with a white car in his avatar. j/k. Personally I like GPW, among my favorite colors for the 968.

That japanese Horizon Blue car looks cool.

Hence the Martini Stripes!!!

When it came down to it, we decided to get a 968 because we liked the color options better than a 944S2 Cab. And Cassis Red Metallic is fun until you try to describe the color to someone that's never seen it!

The two S2 cabs in Zyclam Red are smoking hot though!

Hey it's their fault if they don't know what a Cassis is. I guess I'm lucky that horizon blue looks like what it's called (more or less). I always thought of cassis red as a darker version of Silver Rose.

And Horizon Blue photographs well! I probably only have 3-5 photographs where the color comes out the same way it looks in person. I think the key is lots of direct sunlight.

I have always loved the Violet Blue metallic (turbo version please). Signal green would be next on that list. In the end, there are a lot of great colors. It would be nice to do unique 968 interiors next.

Horizon blue is tricky with different lights yes. This one comes close to "right".
Chrome wheels not the best though..

They are rare. Only 18 cabs and coupes. Most are colors that were no longer available in the year the car was produced.
