Default Paint to sample 993 Turbos?

I know that these were more common on 996 and 997's. What are some of your paint to sample 993 TT colors?

Yes it is, and a recent new owner has the same color (Overdraft's) but I don't think Horizon Blue was PTS.

What about the Orange Turbo we (Chuck W and me for sure did!) drooled about last year that was at TrueSpeed. Pretty sure it was a PTS?

That orange is gorgeous. I'd rather repaint a car that has light accident history for 90k less though.

That was PTS. 1 of 1, unconfirmed.

Saw a 993TTS in Hong Kong, same color.

Tried to buy it last year. Priced to own at $135k

Wrap it for $1500

There was and awesome PTS (I think it was PTS) pearl white 993 Turbo S posted a few months ago. Maybe an car in Asia. Stunning (I used this adjective for Quad).

There are a few 993s in Ferrari Fly Yellow. Is that PTS?

The Orange is tantalizing. And we can't forget this one that was relished in another thread...

My car is paint to sample (Horizon Blue Metallic) - and interior leather to sample a well. Event the carpet was a 9 code and specified to be from another model year. My reading has told me that Horizon Blue was easy enough to get in the early 90's (1990 to 1993) on the 928, 968 and 911 models. The car is getting lowered along with some other minor work so not able to post pictures before the end of next week - weather permitting. I quite like the colour.

Then I stand corrected. Sorry. Thanks for the clarity.
