I'm really surprised by how few red 991s are mentioned here. The agate is lovely, and so is the fancy brown, and white and so on... but red is a classic color that no one seems to be choosing.
How will I ever own a red 991 in 2034 if no one is buying them now? Come on people, step up!

Sound like the "Bumblebee" 914, a Limited Edition version:
"The Bumblebee: Featuring a black exterior (paint code L041), these cars sported Sunflower yellow trim (paint code L13K). Black body paint color was always an additional cost special option on standard 914 Porsche cars, but was included as a standard component on the black 914 LE cars. All but one photo of the 914 Porsche Can Am prototype cars are Bumblebee cars. The black-based 914 LE color scheme is unique to the 914 LE cars and has no precedent with the Can Am race cars or the 1973 911 Carrera RS series cars. The majority of 914 Limited Editions seem to be Bumblebees."
