"one of one" when the difference is color is complete rubbish.

I can paint my car like Janet Joplin's tub and say it's "one of one"...
Would that make it more special/ valuable? I don't think so.

You are right it won't , because it's not original paint from factory
but if your car was ordered paint to sample in Janet Joplins tub color and it's one of one , it sure would be more especial and valuable

Wow Rudy, that one is beautiful! I think it is my second favorite in your growing collection. I really dig the yellow seat belts. Did you add those, or was it the po?

Wow did not know that, damn only 21!

Ocean Jade is looking real good, truly a pleasure we PNW RListers got to be involved in the purchase process.

Default Up Front

Rudy: I noticed on a few of your cars, you have the front spoiler that was typically part of the Aero Kit II package, and no spoiler on the rear....on your Vesuvius and your new green machine. Did you arrange that? Or did they come from factory ordered that way? Just curious ----

Good eye
On the ocean jade the prior owner ordered the turbo S kit from carnewal , he installed it and removed it before he sold it , the rear tail came with the car as well , I have it in storage , now the Vesuvius came with the turbo S kit from factory but I if course I wanted that split grill with the nice color combo that comes on the Vesuvius also my turquoise blue came with the front spoiler also , so there's a total of 4 of my 993's WB's that have turbo S front spoilers

I literally just parted with my '94 Wimbledon Green 964. I was unexcited by the color before I purchased the car, but it is now one of my top all-time favorites. "Electric Green" with very large metallic flakes that do cool things in the sun; this is an outstanding color on a more classic Porsche.

I dig the Ocean Jade, but Wimby was just too good.
