Default Midnight Blue Cars

How many others here? Might pick up Larry Cable's Midnight Blue/Brown car. Going to look at it tomorrow. Always liked the combo since I spotted it in inventory even before he bought it! Timing may not be right, but may be time to......as Tom said in Risky Business...........

Midnight blue is beautiful. Had one for a short time. And the time for a GT3 is always right. You've got quite a collection of 911s there. Most are content with say, one 911!

Go for it Ken. Larry's car is a nice one.

Did not know your first one was! The C4S will go to my cousin if I do this. Becomes impractical to have so many after a certain point.

Midnight blue is one FINE color. I love the way it looks black until you get close to the car and realize that it's blue.

Midnight is terrific for hiding all those melted track worms.

I have a 2004 MB GT3 and love the color; interestingly enough Carrara White gets alot more attention since the car lines stand out more, but the Blue is classic, hides the dirt and looks great when clean and waxed. Also had a prior 996 911 in MB as well. Go for it, you won't be sorry!

Well I passed on it @ $68K. Wife did NOT like the car at all, and admitted after 3 years with the C4S that "I really like this car". Can be bought at that price if anyone is willing to act, say, tonight.

Default Cobalt Blue 996

Guys, there was a cobalt blue 996 for sale on this site a short time ago. I think the car was located in Lexington, KY.

Anyone know if this car sold and was it to a Rennlister?
