Interior of that car is just gorgeous !!
I would do Stone Gray (see 356 photo) with a slightly darker interior (ie Ferrari Cuoio)

I sold my 07 GT3 to the co-owner of Singer....wonder if I can get a discount

I agree the interior finish is killer. It is a new option called 'Second Skin' which is a composite finish.

Regarding stone grey, they actually made a car in this color! It is the New York machine. Now there is a question of whether its acceptable/appropriate for me to do a color that has already been done on a car. That would strike out two great options (gulf and stone grey)!

I'd go a bit darker color I think, but all these plain colors look cool!

Superquant and waiting a year for a car.....

I was building a pretty special RS that I had to abort, but Leaf green was the color I had selected. It is simply perfect on the early 911 shape. It is also known as bush green in german. Olive green is very unique. Another combo that is very striking is metalic kiln red over olive green leather. There was a 78 Turbo in the market for a while with that combo, simply awesome.

Thanks for the tip. Found the below example. Looks lovely - I like the greens and the viper has always been a favorite of mine. This looks like a more classic version of same which might be more appropriate for character of the car.

Here is the Kiln red over olive leather. I think it is the oatmeal carpets that really set this combo up. I missed buying this car about 3 years ago, and I still lust after it!! I also attached golden green which is a nice mix of a few greens. I think it was a 68 color only.

Yes do it. It's perfect on the car! If I have the fortune of building one, I would do the same color.
