Talking What are your FAVORITE 993 Colors ??

HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON EVERYONE and SAFE DRIVING !

Thought I'd do an informal poll on member's favorite color for a 993 (may or may not be the car color you own now).....


---> For fun.... I am allowing the poll to show what people voted for (to do this...click on the vote count in the poll or click the link embedded to the left),

---> and you can pick MORE THAN ONE COLOR (but try to limit your vote to 2 or 3 ....b/c we all know we like all the colors !) !


NOW VOTE ! (AND FEEL FREE TO POST A PIC OF YOUR CAR / FAVORITE COLOR !)




* SPECIAL NOTE * If selecting "Other"... feel free to add the color in a comment below, thanks.

RIVI BLUE, but I guess that is what would be expected from me.

Aventurine green here. Love greens and would definitely have loved an arena red if I found one before mine.

Keep Voting !

NON-SATISTICAL ONGOING ANALYSIS :
I am actually quite surprised that Red is not a more popular choice (thus far)... I would imagine it to be up there with silver and black. Interesting.

But, it is surprising to me that Riviera / Mexico Blues are as popular as they are. I like Riviera Blue - but I am surprised that others like it as much. Anyone else (besides Arena993/Mike) find that interesting ?


Silver and Black are the two big players so far. No surprise there. But if you take "Blue" as a total (light, dark, and 'regular').... it is CLEARLY the majority ! wow.
