^That was you?

The early '70s Triumph TR6 in my neighborhood had a tan/beige leather interior. And don't forget the Red pin stripe side wall radials... a nice understated look.
Who knows the 4-digit Porsche color code for Aventurine green metallic off the top of their head? Seem's waaay back when,,, when spec'ing my 993 I knew such things.. So many 993 options, so little budget or nerve.

I love this color too .., it changes so much from sun to shade. This will always be one of my favorite shots of an Aventurine beauty ....Green over caramel, the color's of the Stuttgart coat of arms and the factory choice for the bosses 'surprise' gift ... and one of my favorites for obvious reasons ..

Look at the depth of the greens in the metallic paint in the bright Alpine sun ..


v.s. the blues that come out under interior lighting ..


and yet another interior color that looks great with Aventurine Green ... custom 'caramel' leather only the best for 'the boss' .

It is my understanding that there are 2 different shades of Aventurine Green (just like there are different shades for Arena Red). Can anyone confirm this? It appears one shade has less green than the other.
