Guys....this is the car I am lowering - 31000 mile - I owner - paint to sample blue on navy blue hides - hardbacks - leather everywhere...headliner, visors lower dash. I was telling a fellow Rennlister this evening the colour reminds me of the special order 997.2TTS blue that was out for a while last year.

Very nice car, in fact i saw this on autotrader or cars.com a few months ago it really caught my eye. I remember leather instrument binnacle as well as fuel tank pull in addition to the mentioned items. I always thought the calipers should match the wheel color, not stand out. Can you confirm interior color for me? Is it navy or midnight blue?

Congrats and beautiful, rare color combo.

Have you thought about just installing PSS10s? This way you'll have more flexibility with ride height etc.

I believe it is navy but you can't tell from this cell phone shot which was provided compliments of a fellow Rennlister who helped me with some information today - and a great chat. There are a dozen option code #'s on the 'individual' option list so it might be made to sample as well. The computer from Porsche is offline until tomorrow so I will get the build sheet from the Porsche store who is affiliated (owned) by the same group as my dealer. This is one of many cars in original owners garage - but the one he drove the most apparantly. My PPI was done by a Porsche tech from the Porsche store when they decided to retail the car rather than wholesale it. All information to round out the file is being gathered.

Funny - I always thought I would be buying black on black or red on black or yellow on black...but blue on blue has its charms too...

Looks similar to sea blue (int), actually very dark in person, almost ink.
Spectacular.

Congrats on finding a truly unique 993tt Overdraft. I love cars that were specifically configured by their first owners - which typically means they were cherished (not always, of course).

The interior is definitely 'to sample' & most of the 5 digit exclusive line option codes probably pertain to that fact. The only way that you could possibly find out the color name of the interior would be to contact the previous/original owner.

Enjoy!
