PRZRR67 is infamous around these parts

Never thought I'd like the PRG color but when I saw the car in person, I loved it. Couldn't find another person in the whole dealership that also liked it. Your thought? Love it, hate it or indifferent about it?

I have one

To be honest, I bought it because I could save some money on it. There were several out there and they weren't selling so the dealers were willing to deal a couple months ago. Now I actually like it. It is easy to maintain understated and you don't see many on the road.

A friend in Indy bought a PRG launch car last Summer. It looked like crap on the dealer's lot (they washed them once a week), looked reasonably good when he got it cleaned up, looked almost "chalky" after sitting in the Porsche Corral for two days at Mid-Ohio in August. So......better treat it like a black car if you get it.

I like it. Having said that, I have bought green vehicles in the past and always regretted it later. I'm not sure why, but I got tired of the color quickly.

I think it is a nice color, but I am sure like many Forum members, it would not be one of my top 5 color choices for a 911.

it is kind of a 'pine' green. didn't really get it when they launched the 997.2s in that color. pretty sure anyone who has it got it because they needed a launch car (or a good deal?), not because they loved (or even strongly liked) the color. sorry, i know its all subjective but when i saw it in person it was very much a 'meh' moment...

they made a deeper blue green back in the 964 era that looked pretty good imo. i remember looking at a 928 in the colour as well.
