Dang, that Iris blue is stunning. Of course TB's car is on a whole different level.

I don't think I've ever seen a 993 in any color that didn't look great. I saw a knockout 993 the other day in Ferarri fly yellow. I love them all.

Thanks for the compliment. I love the color. Have to agree though, TB's machine is a whole different (beautiful) animal.

Mine is a '95 C2 with ROW suspention and stock sport package including the seats. I've had it for a little more than 6 years - got it in '00 with 39k on it. Yesterday it turned 66k.

All the colors are great - my favorites tend to be the metalics though. Someone in town has a Speedster in firefly yellow that looks pretty hot to.

I reckon that it is a great interesting colour . Funny thing is that on Thursday I took 993 C2 in Iris Blue to show prospective buyer who saw it for the first time in bright sunlight and his first comment to me was "I don't like that colour" ! What do I say to that? Funny thing is that I and my better 1/2 get to drive quite a variety of Porsche from the more mundane to the relatively exotic and this particular car and colour has drawn as much comment from passers by when parked (and on the move) as any other car I can think of.

Default First color choice, but....

I couldn't find any interior color other than light grey. Just curious, were any Iris blues made with black interior? If so, I assume there were very few?

I looked for months and only found this one with a marble interior - all the others were dark blue. Didn't see anything in black, but its possible that variorams were made in this combo (but I was after an earlier model).
