The FIRST plate is not real. California DMV never issued black and yellow personalized plates. Unless he painted a Blue and Yellow plate

Strange... a C4S without big reds? Would he have them painted black?!? Or is this perhaps just an S?

Here's Seinfeld's Carrera 4S:

They are silver, just like a plain Carrera 4. This car was an ROW special ordered Carrera 4S for Seinfeld. When you got money, you can have anything.

Chuck, I was thinking the same thing at dinner that the black & yellow plates were never issued as personalized plates. However, the plates are real so he must have had them made or painted or something. After all it's not like he drives it.

Everybody lusts after big reds and this Senfield guy orders his C4S with the brake calipers painted SILVER? Who is this guy anyway? Some kind of a comedian?

Right. If it hadn't been for Pegeuot who had the exclusive on the zero in the middle, so that Porsche was forced to change we would all be 901 fanatics.

mnmblu,
I think it was you who gave me a little 'Hello' honk on Whitsett Ave in Studio City driving in your beautiful Riviera Blue Cab as I was getting into my Targa a couple of weeks ago... It could've been someone else but I love the color!

Hi Jason,
Maybe so, can't help winking at a pretty girl. The car that is. She is a beauty, I love that targa with the turbo twists, very sweeeeet. My car is pretty hard to miss, even from great distance. I have not seen another since I got mine. I don't think they brought that many into Califonia or the U.S. as a whole for that matter. Look forward to seeing you around

Phil... Seinfeld... comedian.

Here is another blue that I saw at the Autofest. He insisted that the color was not Riviera Blue but... I am still not convinced. He was the owners best buddy who was there in the owners absence, so....
