    Do you think that a Green C2 would look nice?

    Two questions to Porsche experts:

    1. Is Green an ok colour?

    2. If so, which Green would you pick for a sunny climate?

    BTW, I was considering a two-tone interior (black/biege).

    Thanx

    1 = IMO ,, no .

    Fyi - The best color for me is GT Silver the logo's and the alloy's stand out from the unique tonic which the paintwork has , you got to see a clean one in the flesh to know what I mean ..

    Olive is very special, dark and charming; worth every penny as mentioned in your other thread.

    I don't really like a green PORSCHE but I did like a E36 Green MTECH 3 series lol. But if you really like green for your C2, then go for it - if you have doubts - it's probably not for you. I myself prefer Polar Silver, Arctic Silver or Seal Grey with light grey interior.

    Two points:
    1. I think greens are beautiful.
    2. In the Southern California market, very very few others share my opinion.

    Therefore: buy green only if you don't care about resale value, and you love it.

    Re: Do you think that a Green C2 would look nice?

    I'm not a fan of Green cars/ P cars. However, I've seen a Green 996 up close and it looked great! All pictures I've seen of Green 997's look very nice too . I would probably prefer the Dark Olive Metallic.

    Color is so personal- if you love it, then get it and enjoy! Porsches in nearly every color look great to me. My favorite is Arctic Silver

    Yeah. Green really sucks.

    Thank you guys for setting my head straight. I was about to buy an $80k frog!

    Gonna stick with Arctic Silver. Please vote on the interior in the other post.

    No.

    But it's your car, whatever will make you happy.
