Loving this colour on the RS, can anyone please confirm if it is Golden Green, Chartreuse or another colour?

I believe this is 'Chartreuse'.
Don Murray owns this car, or
it's twin, in Southern California.
I took photos of it back in 2010.



'Chartreuse' is what we used to
call it back in early 911 days.
Porsche today calls it by its
German name 'Lindgrün'. The
color was recently approved at
the request of one of our fellow
Rennlisters from Northern California
(green lantern). It is color code
226.

That is a really cool story. Thank you. This explains why I've never seen more than a couple of pictures of this color!

I'd love to get that on a GT3 but my PTS ask isn't even confirmed yet, and I'm not a big hitter. I was asked to please confirm my PTS color in the next day or two, but you don't get if you don't ask, so I'll ask

Sometimes i could tell google was wrong with the picture, and I would look for multiple confirmations, where i couldn't confirm the color I left the picture off.

Nice list. Btw, the Pantone 552C has been renamed to Light Blue Celeste (W80)

This is actually a color I came up with after coppaflorioblau was rejected as Paint To Sample color. That Pantone color was the closest approximation to coppaflorioblau I could get.

My goal is to use Light Blue Celeste for the upcoming GT2 RS as a tribute to the original Porsche Exclusive 993 GT2 coppaflorioblau car that you might have seen on the cover of the Porsche Exclusive brochure in the late 90s... but obviously without the bright red interior in my case

Anyone know if the wing side tips on the Gt3.2 can be removed / replaced from the main wing ? Im considering an option of replacing with platinum aluminium ( or try and paint to match ) to match elected wheels on a particular build idea.

Thanks for getting this added, would you know if it's lighter or darker than Gulf?

Thank you Eduardo for the clarification.

Looking forward to seeing some 991.2 GT3s in this colour now that it has been approved for PTS.
