+1 kudos, David A, for going for such a different color. I'm a big fan of signal green, and all Porsche greens (hence my avatar). Also looking forward to pics when you get it.

Cheers,

I remember that chartreuse color from the 914. Back then I thought it looked quite good. That Cayman w/ a black interior would have been acceptable.
