Is burgundy a bad color?
 

I know this is mostly a matter of opinion and I'm not crazy about burgundy, but I always advice about not being picky about color and concentrating on just finding a good solid 993. Well I found a good, well maintained "arena red" (code for burgundy) 993 for a good deal. Does burgundy have a bad resale value? If I want to sale it in the future, will I have some difficulty b/c of the color? Thanks

Did you say Arena Red? Porsche only allowed the Senior Tech's to build and assemble the Arena Red ones!:)

Arena red is gorgeous! No way is there a bad resale value. Don't worry about that at all.

993
 

I love arena red. The last one I had was a 993 nb, no problem re-reselling. Actually better looking in person.

Had one. Great color. Had no trouble selling it.

I was really worried if AR would work for me before I got mine. I agonized over it for weeks. Turns out....I love my Arena Red Porsche 993. A freind once advised me, never buy a car for it's resale...buy a car because you love it.

Good luck,

PS It is definitly Arena Red, not burgundy;)

I love the darker reds on most cars. It's taken awhile for Guards Red to grow on me but it has 'though I still prefer AR. Really like the darker blue's too. Personally don't care for white or black but I know they're very popular with many folks. Decide what you like and go from there, don't worry about what the rest of us like.

Arena Red is a spectacular color! It changes shades from sun to cloud

Arena Red was the poster child color for the first 993 Turbo's!! My first 993 was a arena red NB and now I finally have an arena red C4S. I wouldn't buy any other color. You definetly can't go wrong with this color.

Prior to joining this forum, I too did not care for "burgundy" colored cars. However, Arena Red has grown on me. It looks great on 993s as the photos show.

There is no such thing as a "bad" color for a 993 :)

I always thought it was a classy color

That was my number 1 color choice when I looked. I couldn't find one at the time.

That's subject to debate given the metallic gold and metallic pink 993 that I'm sure "Curve Lover" has images of stored on a hard-drive somewhere...


Arena Red, however, is a great color!

It is my favorite color, with a buckskin interior.
