I like the idea of the white with red wheels.

Colin, why stop at just the Fuchs of the Sport Classic ... go the whole deal, light grey, chocolate interior, twin subtle contrast light grey central stripes, set off by the wheels. I think the retro look they captured in the SC actually would suit the lines of the 993 Speedster better again than the smoothed 997 coupe, just go take a look at the style of a finished one again.

I think its the one occasion when black wheels have looked truly good against a body, generally not a fan otherwise.

It'll save me having you build the same in a little while ...

Ok. I got the right color but the wrong car. Let me try again. How about Lime green metallic? I think you should go bright..

Rudy's probably just a little busy curled up a fetal position, rocking back and forth...thinking of all the possibilities here. Either that, or in the air, enroute to personally sort out the build details.


Lots of win in this thread...I might be the one enroute if those Powerball/Mega Million tickets hit, but not for the Speedster S build.

Big Blood orange fan here, but only for the GT2. Not feeling the Rivi Blue/Turq either...love em, but not here.

Kinda like the white/chocolate combo-white matched HB's, and lots of twin row white stitching. Could you Houndtooth that interior, or too much? Also like the Basalt Black, but the chocolate guts wouldn't pop enough.

That chocolate would pop with Pastel Yellow wouldn't it? Or...what was that sand color, a light metallic tan...or not enough contrast.

worked on the 55" speedster, so it should work on this one

Interior would be nice with an ox blood red....

For my 993rd post....Grandprix White and Flamenco Red.

I suppose my vote would count more if I sent you a deposit.

I'm not a huge fan of bright colors, but that just leapt off the screen and punched me in the face. I love that.
