Default Viola

Vesuvio was supposed to be considered "purple" (not grey), but it seems to be a "mix" of a lot of colors. Probably one of the rarest. I woould of considered it, but it's not avail as a cab.

I was happy with Viola Metallic. It was only avail. for a few years, but someone said that it was coming back.

I kinda regret passing on the cobalt blue car that I was considering, but got a much nicer car in the process.

Awesome! What I was thinking of was the Millenium 996's Vesuvio w/that brown interior. Must be great with grey or tan interior.

Saw a 996 advertised at one time that was factory painted with the BMW pheonix yellow. Looked great.

Mike, I love that color combo. I bet you don't have trouble finding it in the grocery store parking lot.
Redridge, your 911 is still my screen saver. I dream of installing the same factory aerokit on mine.
