You see, this is exactly what happen when you let loose a bunch of petrol heads in a workshop full of spare cars, parts and equipment: they don't have a yard sale to clear the place, they build something instead. Well, I suppose it's better than twiddling our thumbs over winter isn't it and at least it keeps you guys entertained?

So here you go, another 9m Speedster S is on the way, fabrication of the shell is now complete and the boys have been finishing off the spray underseal work this afternoon prior to final primer. This is currently a non-commission build so we have not yet finalised the colour or trim specification - just in case a customer comes along and wrestles the car away from us before we decide. In truth decide is probably the wrong way to look at it, if we get to the day it needs paint it is more than likely that me and Marc will make the choice over an arm-wrestle rather than debate, although I'm not holding my breath to the chances of winning either competition. We do both agree with Jager & Graham over the choice of wheels though, they jut have to be 18" Fuchs or 19" Sport Classics. Well done for making that decision easy for us.

Which leads me nicely on to suggestions for the colour and the trim. Myself and Marc have talked about all sorts of combinations until we ran out of tea. Marc currently fancies a jelly-bean Signal Green with black interior whereas I want to go sophisticated with a dark chocolate interior, perhaps with grey or maybe a traditional 2.7RS theme of Grand Prix White with red wheels. Why don't you let us know your thoughts? All suggestions welcome!

Everyone's been wanting to see Riviera Blue. I'd like to see Pearl White.

Jelly bean colors for sure! One of those fancy Blues that everyone loves, or signal green would be awesome! You could go for a more sedate, "mature adult" color combo, but really? Is that what you are building here? Nope, you are building pure FUN!

Basalt Black on chocolate interior! Paint matched Recaro Pole Position seat backs and Gold faced BBS E88 with polished lips.

I know everyone is going to say Riviera, but I think Maritime would look cool.
(excuse poor ps skills and use of old 911)

Paint it white. The color alone will add 30bhp.

ilko

L8C6.

Just the third hit on google confirmed my suspicion (although I'd personally prefer 12H)....

DanQ

Blood Orange for me

Cemoto

Speed Yellow over black....

PaulGeudon

Dark grey with a chocolate interior sounds rather lovely.

White with black would be my choice though - black Fuchs, full black interior.

certz

Slate grey over black.

NEK

Slate gray on ...
some sort of deep, dark red; or, so long as I'm dreaming, black with red piping.

NineMeister

This one it won't be, we're painting our new 9m93GT2RS that colour.

Dangit .. you know .. Blood Orange/Tangerine with dark brown leather/Alcantara and orange piping/stitching would nail it.
