^That was at Porsche of West Broward last Friday... Carmine Red and Sapphire Blue which was their 2nd & 3rd deliveries. They actually had to unload at the dealer next door for more space for the transporter. My GBM was also from the same dealer and arrived back on 10/17... which was on the first batch of shipment for south FL but first for this dealership.
The manuals are due to arrive there next week....

Boy if that was sapphire blue metallic, someone sure had a bad camera....the color looked like those hideous turquoise 996s from back in the day. Feel sorry if that was a PTS color!
The carmine looks about right! I hope someone takes a better video with both cars! My current GT3 is sapphire blue metallic and incoming is carmine red.

Looks like PTS blue turquoise metallic (L25C) - which was an option color on the 993's.

Sure...we took a W211 E320 Wagon, retrofitted the full E320 CDI turbo diesel powertrain into it, added the E63 wagon wheels/trim/AMG items, then custom-tuned the powertrain to add 130hp/200 ft-lbs of torque.
The 560SEC - I removed the factory powertrain (5.6L V8) and transplanted a 6.0L V12 engine and transmission from a 600SEL.
Here it is: (with the intakes powder coated in black and the valve covers in red)

Probably the lighting, but it looks kinda like Ipanema, though just slightly darker.
