slate grey is a nice color ... sorta unique like adenturine green.
Im not convinced this is the most beautiful 993 ive ever seen .. seems pretty ordinary inside.
IMHO, i prefer NA cars to not have turbo rear spoilers.

Rob, you tail-snob!

Slate is OK...Arctic is better IMO

Wierd Rob, I just posted a tail poll. I prefer clean as well. LOVE the paint though.

I think it is extremely nice for a somewhat non-modified car, but come on, on this forum mods are IT!!! Porsche purists are on the concours forum
For real looks, I want to see lots of polished aluminum accents and slammed suspension. Oh yeah, some kick-a$$ polished wheels wouldn't hurt either.

Love the color, but then again, I like Aventurine Green too.
As for the rest of the car, I actually prefer them without the aero kit.

I love adventurine, but only on C4S though. Kinda strange.

Adventurine green is a car you definitely need to see in person. Kinda changes depending on light and the angle you view it at.

Rob, here are a couple not so great pics from when I bought it in Dec. The posts above are on the money...Aventurine Green is an "In person" kind of color. Either that, or you need someone better than me with a camera to take the pics.
If you or your friend are going to be at the Jersey Shore anytime, feel free to check it out in person..just shoot me a pm. I'm right near Long Beach Island.

Here is an 95 adventurine green cab at RPM, 36.5k. I believe it's been there for a while.

joe - i certainly think the tail looks better on a WB than a NB.. just my poor aestetic opinion. And, i do really like a NB with an RS wing.. and at times, i feel the WB looks funny w/o some type of tail.
Actually, almost all 993's are beautiful, so it really doesnt matter.


Quick Reply: I think this is the purdiest lil' NA 993 I've ever seen.
