One of THE best 911 colors in the grand traditional sense. What a great find!

Andy,

I want to say I'm green with envy, but that would not come out right. I'm actually blue with envy. I think you have just changed the English language....

Incredible find. Enjoy in great health.

Now about that SUV ride height ......

Jack

Thanks again for all the kind words guys.
Jack - I hear you loud and clear about the SUV height. Will probably source a ROW Susp in the near future...

Car kinda fell into my lap and am happy I picked it up even though my "toy" budget these days don't really allow for it and I really wasn't looking... Beautiful L3AS Blue Turquoise 6spd C2S. It's in amazing shape. Seems to be a "Love it or Hate it" type of color....

All stock.
-Andy





From what I have learned Porsche delivered perhaps 12 Blue Turquoise cars to California around 1997. Although a standard (no cost) color, it was rarely chosen. People tend to stick to silver, black, white or red. Jerry S had a Blue Turquoise 993 Turbo S which is making the rounds with collectors. Presently on eBay for $199K Buy It Now.

I chose 3AS for my 06 which has more miles on it than yours now! (about 27,000).

I think the one he has that wears the "LAST" vanity plate is Mexico Blue...which IIRC is a little lighter that Riviera. Turquoise, Riviera and Mexico are all sweet colors!

Me likey. Makes my new-to-me polar silver 993 seem like yesterday's news.

How close is it to arrow blue (arrowblau 305)? Found an '82 928 that color recently:

buck--I had your car on my computer for awhile while awaiting my call from Zuffenhausen!

Would love to park a blue Turquoise next to an Arrow Blue for a comparison.
