Default Oak green cab

Here's a rare one. 1 of 15. 14 of them are paired with the black/cashmere interior like this one. An interesting color.

I remember looking at a low mileage Oak Green coupe in NJ, owned by a Mars Candy executive-and that car turned out to be one you looked at a Porsche dealer in CT when it was new.

Here it is back in 1995 looking for a new owner. Darn mortgage! I couldn't bring myself to do it. But I did take it for a drive.

How many miles were on the car when you saw it? Turned out to be 1 of 20 coupes.

there was a hardtop that sold in Lexington, Mass in late 2007/early 2008 for like $18 K.

God i wanted that car but ended up getting a much better deal in NC.


i think the car in Lexington was in Aventurine. ok, dug up a photo.

We had 2 Oak Green Metallic (N9) Coupes attend 968 Celebrations. One owner was from VA, the other DC. The DC Coupe was original owner.

Ugh, the robo-Ken Burns video. Oooh, the pain. The horror. Cool color though.

Missing armrest, worn out shifter leather, some paint issues around the rear emblem perhaps... Maybe more pics would show more flaws.
