The vehicle would sell quickly on PCarMarket or BAT, so why would they not go that route? That's the question I'm asking myself, at least.
They’ve probably never heard of either.

I kinda of like the interior. I’m into green , but the yellow is a no for me , I think with black exterior that interior with black stitch would pop.

Car as gotta be a one of kind color combo.

The colors are great separately, but together... no.

Garrett,

Such a beautiful color and I love the two toned grey dash. I wish it had better oem options like an LSD and Litronics. I’ve been looking for a pts or low production colored 996 mkI to do a retro build with. This would really fit the bill but just lacking those other things.

colors I’ve considered are this, meridian metallic, teal, and others I haven’t seen to give me a retro feel. Plan is to do a aero kit with hounds tooth interior inserts with some other small details to give it that retro feels.

I’m a sucker for nephrite! My new search is for a meridian metallic with nephrite interior. Anyone ever seen one?
