I like white coupes and prefer the softer Grand Prix White over Glacier with Cashmere/black interior. I wish my car was ordered with black carpets like some I've seen. Having said that, if I could order a new 993 today: Slate Grey with Marble Grey/Rubicon/black and black top or Arena red/Black/Black or Arctic Silver/Black if it were a cab, Forest Green (Tannengruen) Metallic with Marble Grey/Rubicon for a Targa or Coupe. I also really like Turquoise Metallic and the special order Wimbledon Green and of course Rivi blue ... However, all this is subject to change based on the next 993 that pulls into view on any given day.

Vesuvius with black for me. Although there is a bit of bias evident in that choice ............

Gotto say - I do like that Vesuvious - especially with the steel grey mirrors and handles!
Finding this picture of Cobalt Blue swayed my choice! Plus Black Interior with silver grey highlights (stitching etc)

I vote for Arena Red with either cashmere or classic grey interior.

This is a great example of the exterior color!

David

ooooooooohhhhhhh this picture is making it more difficult for me to decide whether to go with clear or yellow corners when i ditch the bumperettes.

I was thinking yellow corners would look good on a blue car.

here are a few examples of a RSCS is saw in OZ a few years ago that has yellow corners

I'd give a different answer every time someone asked. Usually lean towards some form of blue with a black interior. Or Slate Grey/Can Can Red, Viper Green/black..............

I had the Polar/Midnight combo on a C4S too. Wasn't crazy about it either when I first bought it but it really grew on me too. My GF at the time absolutely loved it. Midnight looks awful in pictures but great in person, especially when paired with Polar Silver.

Tough question! I would say silver/black or black/black.
