Love it! Nice color on the 997 TT. What color is the interior?

Thanks all for the kind words.
Car interior is tan. Will be customized to alcantara black soon.
It was a complete tear down paint job.

Now I'm curious. Everyone obsesses about factory paint. But assuming this was done well (visually indistinguishable from factory quality), and given it was a tear-down paint job, would this affect the value of the car for you guys? To me, the positive of stunning, perfect appearance would roughly cancel out the only negative, which would be that some other guy might care when I want to sell. If we were talking about a really rare car it'd be another thing, but for a 997 I don't see it being an issue.

On newer cars, like our 997s, it'll inevitably be considered a negative by potential buyers and raise concerns about body damage. But, if done well and the color wasn't available from Porsche, then I think it's a positive, personally. No one balks when Singer changes the color...
