Desirable

I believe the Green IS desirable for several reasons:

-Pure rarity (special color, metallic color, whatever)
-Pure good looks
-Attractive combo with ANY interior, Black, Tan, Gray (which I hate almost anywhere), Green on Green (pics plz this is epic never seen but in my mind), you NAME it, only one I have a hard imagining is Boxster/Carrera Red, STILL epic..
-Classic color, reminiscent of BRG
-No longer offered, that much more uncommon

So, I went out f my way for this color, spent a few more bucks but the car was loved, low mileage, stock, in very good condition overall and that is worth it too!!
(and as some have mentioned, this is a general trend with the green cars, but not exclusively, just those who modify their green cars seem to be more conservative and have a better eye for taste!)

I get compliments on the cars color ALL the time, from a retired AF Officer, to my mom, to other Porsche peeps, to my mechanic, to the guy who redid my plastic window that hadn't seen one in his shop before.

So chew on that !

I assume this must be a less-than-desirable color. Any thoughts on what that would do to resale value or even ability to sell? not that I will likely EVER sell it once I get it. Have been dreaming about a Boxster for years...
