Default Cayman Green

A friend dropped up to the house the other day and I had to snap this with my silly iPhone. Bright colors look even better in the rain!

Not having driven it, I suppose I should ask to take it out--before he sells it. (He goes throug habout 15 Porsches a year).

I've seen a couple R's in that color.

Did not like. At all. Pukey green.

A buddy of mine back in the day, had a '76 914 in that color. I'm not personally crazy about it, but the 914 looked great in that hue.

Looks great in person - not for everyone, but definitely makes a statement.
