Porsche has some of the ugliest color combinations in history. But I can see where dark red over black would look cool.

Then don't you have boccie sized balls with the spinners comment?

PS 240 was a nice car, too bad it suffered Fiat itis, they literally disintegrated, Japan made a green car and didn't even know it.
