Need Quick Advice -Great Deal Available On A Guards Red Car- Automatic Ticket Magnet?
#17
As the title says, there is an amazing car available to me, and it looks absolutely beautiful in Guards Red, but my concern is that this may be a ticket waiting to happen every time I hit the street. That is, in fact, the ONLY reason I didn't already pull the trigger on this deal tonight.
I would greatly appreciate your thoughts, especially those of you who may have this color. Thanks very much.

When I was looking to buy a Porsche, my first choice was metallic silver. However, my "great deal" options were red or black C2S. I was concerned at first, but I bit the bullet and bought the red one.
Now, I absolutely love the way my red C2S looks, and other colors look a bit dull now.
Go for it! You will not regret it.

I went through the same thought process when I decided to go Guards Red on my Targa 4 ... and, after seeing the color in person, it looks beautiful, it's eyecatching (which I wanted) and everyone else that thought it might be gaudy or overdone changed their mind once they saw the car. If you like red, do it.

I have 2 bright yellow and 1 bright orange car. But, hey, these are outrageous cars, don't hide your light under a basket.

I got pulled over in my yellow Evo VIII all the time in Texas on a certain highway between Wichita Falls and Dallas. I never received tickets, just vague warnings. I bought a blue Evo IX and never got looked at by anyone. I figured it had to be the color and the car.
I personally think you shouldn't have any issues with a red 911 unless you drive like an a-hole.

Actually, I think the color looks spectacular on Porsches. Just never felt it was safe due to the attention it might attract from the police. I think I am ready to throw down the gauntlet and go for it. Thanks, very much, to all for the encouragement.

I don't think it'll be any different - but the owner of a "flashier" colored car will always have to be more patient to find the right buyer. Price is a function of supply and demand. There are fewer red cars built because there is less demand. If one is willing to wait, he should be able to find the buyer that's looking for that certain color, and attain market price.

One or two tickets are worth driving these cars anyhow...
