Need HELP finding/identifying a Porsche METALLIC GREEN color

alpinadvl · 10-22-2009, 03:45 AM

Ok,

I know I have seen a picture of a pre-993 911 in a certain metallic green.

(it is not signal green)

but it is metallic, with a pastel-like color green... and has a metallic "tinge" to it.

I know this is not very helpful....

but if any of you can picture what I am talking about.... or better yet, know the color I would appreciate it.

?? BTW, this one is unknown but my two previous posts were Viper and Lindren, respectively.

alpinadvl · 10-22-2009, 04:21 AM

I've been searching and searching.....

one of the colors I had in mind was the following (I think it is ice green metallic) as mentioned by Canyon (Is the picture I am attaching also ice green metallic?).... I do remember it being a little more "yellowish" though (I know this is beginning to sound annoying.... I can just hear how this sounds in my own head)

PS: mlk118s.... what green is that in your avatar?

---> THANKS FOR ALL THE INPUT SO FAR !
(there is a reason for this line of inquiry....)

I have seen the color on either a 964 or earlier 911 convertible (specifically) - and I think it was amazing.

alpinadvl · 10-22-2009, 04:22 AM

Mongrelcat ..... are the first 2 pictures you posted the same color?.... because the 2nd picture you posted looks more like what I was thinking. (but the first definitely is not)

Dunno what this one is called but it is hot.

No, not the same. I think the first one is Viper Met. and the second is called "Lindren".

THAT HAS TO BE THE COLOR !

Now.... WTH is it ?????

Canyon56 · 10-22-2009, 04:44 AM

MCat, I thought that color was called Lindgrun metallic (?)

I kinda like Oak Green Metallic:

Canyon56 · 10-22-2009, 04:49 AM

fwiw, this is supposed to be Apple Green Metallic.

Try PM'ing that guy, though he has a different car listed as his own, in his sig. But maybe he took the photo or knows the owner.

Which? Post #3 or #9?

Pretty sure #3 is "Lingren" as the owner called it out in his sig. Not sure really, lots of debate/confusion based on all the Pelican threads with "green" in the title..

Canyon56 · 10-22-2009, 05:01 AM

I meant post #9. Lindgrun just means Lime Green in German, of course.

Here's another Apple Green (has more yellow than Lindgrun, but almost looks like your #9 post):
