This is the ugliest color for a 997TT that I've laid my eyes on. It's on the rennlist classifieds listed as paint to sample.

Do you think he/she is color blind?

with the right wheels and a drop in ride height you would be surprised what colors you can get away with. But I have to agree, it probably was a better idea in theory vs. practice.

Maybe they wanted to match the colour of their walls in the garage That's the only thing I'd paint that colour.
