Saw this car recently, color named Emerald Green. So nothing close to on of the darker greens. Also have not seen Emerald on the most recent PTS list.

Funny about the photos above. I looked at all the same ones except WR's Oak 911R, as my car was in process before I saw pics of it. The R that looks dead green is, I think, Oak, and was one of the ones that sold me on Oak. That and the Ruf Rt35—though I cannot guarantee it is the same paint code or supplier. Would be interesting to find out.

One thing is I am not sure ^ "M XR 991" is Oak. Might be Jet Green or Forest, or the photos may have color shift. Would be curious if anyone can confirm?
Lol - would be some irony if some of the photos that swayed me were not in fact Oak... It still may be, however, as the PTS sample "frog" in the picture below (Oak is second from right) shows quite similar to my eye, particularly in the areas where there is no direct light (ie the side facing the camera), and XR 991 was clearly photographed on an overcast day:

Lol yes. The strange thing about these photos is that in one photo the car is completely dry and in other photos it is wet. Yet it has a parking ticket in both the wet and dry photos. Did the car dry during the day, or did the owner park in that spot across a number of days and just not give a stuff about getting a ticket every day?

Someone raised this point earlier in the thread, and if I am honest with myself, I know I wont keep it clean all the time - one of the reasons for shifting to Oak, as pointless having a colour that only looks good clean and not keeping it clean. Yours looks great in those photos though!

Green in general suits the 911 well.. Can't go wrong with any of them.

That is a great call...and to be honest, it doesn't appear you can make a bad choice with these colors! Please post up pics once delivered
