I was flipping through Robb Report magazine the other day, and they had a feature on Porsche's, and there was a 97 C4S in "Gulf Blue special order color" which looks really beautiful. Now, in another thread on the 996 forum ( I think), another Rennlister mentions that Gulf Blue was not permitted by Porsche when his friend tried to order ( but yet another Rennlister also mentions that someone was successful like the car in Robb Report). So, are there colors Porsche will not do or difficult to get permission even with the extra "paint to sample" option. And how do you give the color sample? Some color chip sample from Pantone or other specialize paint chip catalogs? Like if Porsche gives you a hard time with Gulf Blue, and you make it just a shade darker or lighter, then it is ok? Just curious....if I ever get the chance to buy new one day.
