Green Boxsters out there?

[matty-matt]

i was originally going to buy a friend's 2000 986s that he ordered with rainforest green/savannah beige with black top. he wanted more than i preferred to spend so i wound up with lapis blue/beige with blue top.

the sales mgr at the porsche dealership (good friend from college) said he figured -$1000 for the green (and yellow) for trade-ins and +$1000 for lapis and some other colors i forget now.

personally, i'd still rather have the green!

In Dec '06 Fort Worth Autobahn had a new Forest Green '06 987 S with sand interior. My Jag XJS & Miata had this loveable classic combination.

Also in Dec 06 Cinncinati Beechmont had a green w sand '07 987 S.

When I was looking for my Boxster, rainforest green with a light colored interior was at the top of my list. If you are open on price, location, mileage, and year, you shouldn't have too much trouble finding one. But most people are not so open, and it makes it tough to find a fairly rare color when you put a bunch of other requirements on top of it. In the end, I didn't end up with green as I had hoped, as being an '03 or '04 S for the right price was more important to me. But I still turn a little bit green every time I see one drive by.

here are two, the 987 was a special order "rolex" green that caught a lot of heat on the internet, not a lot of fans of the color or the price tag, I think it was in the 80K range with ceramic brakes and custom paint...see if you can get it!

This Rufster belongs to a fellow Chicago PCA member...it is a Ruf 3400S that he had specially painted in Viper Green, with the same interior accents. It is very striking in person. As he always says, "If you've seen one Viper Green 3400S, you've seen them all!"
