996 TT Arena Red
Was this car ever made in this color? Or was it a special job? Does anyone have any pictures of any?
I know there's one in the classifieds.... http://mall.rennlist.com/scripts/fea...uery=retrieval

Ask the seller for the paint code off of the options sticker, or the VIN #. PCNA can validate options via CoA or by having the dealer check thru eDCS.

This is my car - being offered by a broker.
It is a special order Arena Red, and IMHO it looks gorgeous on the 996TT.
I've been a longtime fan of the 993TT, and this car is just the best of both
worlds ... Simply elegant and still stimulatingly colorfull.
W.R.T the comment about price - we are negotiable, but I find that you get
what you pay for - there are plenty of "bargains" out there - but very few
jewels that deserve the price - this one certainly does deserve a bit higher
consideration than the average.
I recently talked with Kevin at Ultimatemotorworks, and he and I were very similar in our car searches - I looked for 18 months - saw/considered 8 cars, and finally decided that I was looking at lower cars at lower prices - nice cars still demanded a fair price. Kevin was very similar and said he actually saw 11 cars and flew/ met ownera before deciding on his.
Here are some more pics:
Any questions please feel free to ask or PM me or Cloverleaf.
Comments also appreciated from one enthusiast to another...

Oh BTW Carmon/Camona is very much darker - with a different highlight more "Plum/Molases" where Arena is more a "Burgundy" with slight blue-ish highlights.
