Default WTB 97/98 993 Blue on Black

I've searched the classifieds and come up short... anyone know of any blue 993's for sale with black interior? Also, I'm looking for a little clarification on which flavors of blue were available - was it just Ocean and Iris? Any owners of blue on black (or blue on anything) 993's, please post pics!

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm looking for a deep, dark blue. Cobalt, Ocean, and Iris seem to be the closest to what I'm searching for... anyone have pics of those colors? Thanks!

See my ad in the classifieds (Ad #3752) for Ocean Blue with Classic grey. Midnight Blue was the dark blue in '95 and '96, Ocean Blue replaced it in '97.

Go to paintscratch.com...

http://www.paintscratch.com/

Put in the year and make of the car you are looking for and it will come back with a list and samples of colors that were available for each particular model year.

Good luck.

Thanks, but I'm looking for a coupe with black interior. Nice car, though!

I have never seen a blue 993 with black interior. I looked and that's what I wanted, but I don't think it's out there. Mine has classic grey interior, but with a black dash, console and steering wheel. I'm thinking of swapping my seats out for black ones, but I won't bother with carpet.

I know of an Ocean blue '97 C2 that had a black int. I looked hard at it before I bought mine about a year ago. It looked great, for sale from a Silican Valley guy in San Jose area 2 years ago. It does exist anyway.

Yes. Pales in comparison to Iris IMHO. Check this magazine cover out - it's exactly the car I'm searching for:

If humor is intended here, it's over my head.
