I saw several of that green on 986 when I was shopping, but I haven't seen it on 987. I have seen a similar green on a Cayman but it must have been a special order color.
I had a dark green, about hunter green or ivy green on my first Porsche - '64 356C Cabrio - with brown leather interior and tan top, but it was not a standard either.
Yeah, I know, I wish I still had it, too!
Believe it, or not, I bought it in the spring of 1968 (Junior in High School), for $2,000.00!!
It was my third car (56 Chevy Belair, 61 MGA MkII) but the first I bought myself.
Don't worry, it was not a chick magnet, because in 1968, nobody knew what the hell a Porsche was!!
