Color choices
So I've narrowed down my color options for my 951 powered 968 track car and looking for some opinions. I want to keep it a factory color, and even better if it was actually an option on the 968. I want something bright and flashy but not red. Interior will be gutted and painted the same color. Will most likely be doing fender flares too.
Here's what I"m thinking:
Continental Orange:
Signal Green:
Maritime Blue:
Riviera Blue:
Speed Yellow:

Not sure this was a factory color, but a guy named Konstantin had a 968 years ago painted in the most incredible shade of orange - kind of a burnt orange, but not exactly the Corvette version of this color. The car looked like a meteor. You might try googling it. I like the copper too, though, though I understand your concern with the metallic color.
Painting it yourself, huh? Wow, that's impressive - I'm always awed by people who have the skill and patience to do body and paint work . Best of luck with whatever you go with.

don't love any of them, [including Blood Orange]—but Riviera Blue.
got to see Riviera Blue at a certain Rennlister's home.
incredible color to see in person.

This is easy, open a bag of M&Ms, sort out the red and brown ones, then pick a color. The popular colors are all there: Speed Yellow, Rivera Blue, Continental Orange, and Signal Green.
I'm considering Viola Metalic. Not a track car color, but available in the early 90's on 911s but never chosen from the Special Wishes Program for a 968. Done correctly, the car apears black except in the bright sunlight.
