You've all seen my car plenty of times, but here's another photo. It's not black or grey - it's Midnight Blue Metallic.

Viola Metallic, special order for only 2000 and 2001 as I understood. I have ye to see another one in person, another Rennlister in this area mentioned in the Canadian forum he also has one of the same color, however he rarely posts and has not come out to any of the local P-car gatherings, his is also a Cab too.

Great color ... really a stunning car, and one that is sure to stand out in a crowd.

I'm on the other end of the continuum with the color that absolutely melts into the background -- Paladio Pearl Metallic, aka Mirage. Like Viola, this was a special order color for two model years, 1999 and 2000. I've seen ads for several other 996's for sale in this color, but have never actually seen another one.

I am told by the owner that this is Wimbledon Green.
If so, that was a special order color I believe.

Not a special order but you don't see too many of these around.
