Default Is this Adventura Green?

Hoepfully the pictures attach. Anyhow, I can't figure out if this is rain forest green or adventura green? Any one care to take a guess? Also, what are the opinions on this color?
Thanks much

looks like it...

I have an Adventurine green Cab and like the color (with cash/blk interior) more and more every year...
Not everyone's favorite, (like high volume production colors silver, red and black) I get definitely a lot of "nice color" admiration from passers by.

Thank you. The seller says it is rain forest green, but after the research I had done, I thought it was adventura green. I will get the paint code and find out for sure. It is a pretty sharp color. I can't recall ever seeing a 993tt or any other Porsche for that matter in that shade color.

Don't know what color it is, but I like it!
You're not going to see one of those in your neighbor's garage.

Yes, that is Aventurine Green. Forest Green is more green. I think there was a car at Willhoit a while ago in that colour.

Aventurine green...good lord if I can't spell the color correctly I don't deserve to own the car. Thanks for setting me straight. The interior is dark gray. The car is pretty nice. The seller and I are still in price negotiations, but hopefully it will work out and we can set up the PPI. If this one doesn't happen, I might temper my expectations and look for a nice c2s or c4s.
