By brother bought a BMW cab that was called Techno Violet which we only saw in pictures so we were not absolutely sure what it would look like "in person". It looked similar to this and it turned out awesome! I don't think I've ever seen a car color even close till now.

I saw the car on Monday afternoon. It really is a love it or hate it type of color. The PIC by DKuehn is very close.
The car was a 99 C4 with some nice options. I would have been interested in it until I saw the condition. It was disgustingly dirty. It had 38k on the clock and I don't think it was ever cleaned. I kid you not, there was a heavy layer of dirt and dust on the inside. But to be fair the car had not been detailed yet and the dealer is going to try a make it a CPO car. Then I looked at the engine compartment. I nearly fell over from the amount of dirt, leaves, and sticks I found in there. So sad I thought. Did they use this car for landscaping?
After I ditched the sales guy I went over to talk with the Techs which a friend who was with me knew very well (always a good thing). They showed the warranty work which included two repaints, ignition switches, two RMS, and few other little things. I didn't see any 15k or 30k services on there. How sad is that. The only upside to this is there are lots of 996's and sooner or later a good will find me.
