original post:

we need a thread showing off all the 968 colors from the ordinary to the sublime, oddball colors.... it's been tried before a few years ago, but that thread died out, and very few photos were posted, or they got erased.... i don't wish to take anything away from Jeff's threads showing some of the more interesting colors and the options that were ordered for the cars.... if you guys are up for it, let's get some pics of all the colors.... even if you don't own the car in a particular photo, how about posting what you have. anyway..... i may post a few fotos of your own cars myself, having forgotten it's yours...


from the thread a few years ago......

I publish all of the color statistics when I hit 400 (like I did at 300). there are many colored 968s out there and don't forget, you could custom order any 968 in a color to sample paint.


i'm going to need some help right on the first post.... i don't have any idea what color options are for these first two cars colors showing here in what i believe is some variation of Merlot (possibly Zyclamrot Metallic) ?.... the second color some variation of purple and i have no idea what it might be.... the third color is probably Rubystone Red..... the fourth is Cassis Red, a 1 of 1 car, IIRC... and finally, Amethyst Pearl 38A w/ the 993 headlamps.....



please post more even if you've got repeat colors.

Eric,
That cab is actually 1993 Raspberry. It is a metallic. 1 of 6 and the 968 movie car was that color. Rubystone is a solid pink.
