There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, like a purple 911. Any year, any generation. Purple just somehow surpasses them all. This is my opinion of course!

There are a few colors that I don't think you see often enough but I understand they just don't sell as well. Purple, yellow, green, and brown, especially in metallic.

Nobody wants to drive a brand new yellow or purple 911 to work; hence their absence from showroom floors.

But everybody wants an old yellow or purple 911 next to them on the lawn at Pebble Beach.

Unicorn 911's age into their inestimable value.

20-years (2019) was only the dawn of Type 996 on the collector market. We really haven't even seen anything yet.

By 2029 Type 996 will be literally on fire.

Default '99 Forest Green Metallic C2




Asked somebody to Photoshop my car with color matched Forest Green wheel centers to see how it would look. Going for a throwback period look Special Wishes car. I think it looks really cool.

NO color is boring with amber lenses. If anything Black's even MORE striking!
