I also loved the line, "This 2001 Carrera 996 6-Speed C2 Coupe is the Newest One For Sale in the USA." What the hell does that mean?!?! Talk about BS.

That white exterior / green interior is atrocious. But the reverse is quite nice in fact (and unique). I'd seen a signal green 997 (like the GT3 RS) with a cream / black leather interior on ebay sometime back. Can't seem to find the link to it now, but it looked awesome.
Edit: Here it is :

I love the exterior, but the red accents in the interior are a bit tacky.

Well, the green car is not as offensive as the white one. Although, I agree that the red trim was a mistake. Definitely a unique car.
I think someone got drunk at a party before that order was placed.

Specifically I like signal yellow (orange), turquoise blue, riviera blue or lime green... basically all the late 60s/early 70s colors. Does anyone own a 996 with these colors (pictures greatly appreciated)??
Or an idea on how to track one of these cars down when it comes time?
Thanks, Ross

I don't know, that price is really really low. I tried to go to the www.sexy9whips.com he gives, but my company filter must think it's a **** site.
