Go for the original silver - always looks great (in my humble opinion of course)

Silver 1995 928 GTS ready for an evening out!

I'm kind of digging petrol blue these days. Doesn't have the 'pop' of Minerva but it's a cool hue.

We had a "paint to sample" '87 Minerva in our shop.
Minerva looks great on an early car, but was breathtaking on a late car!

You know what - the truth is, we on this forum just love these cars, even if they were patina, we would still love them! Long may we see them occasionally being "shown off", they are still the best!

By the way, the blue is gorgeous but I can't help asking, what is that car under cover in the background with the stop sign sticking out the top of it!

We are painting it Continental Orange. Sills and door jams have been shot. My guy is so slow this might take another year.
