1st. I love green, but that green is pretty horrible. Like someone earlier said, it has no depth.

3rd. That poor dealership. I wonder if we'll ever find out who ordered that car.

Hey Chills and you were one of the guys (Grizzly the other) who I thought might like the color!

Don't worry about the Porsche Dealership...they sold this car once already...it has 4,600 miles on it! This is now a used car.

I liked the pics that were first posted, I thought the color was original and I liked the deep green. But after seeing the pics that eslai posted I changed my mind. Those pics make the color look pretty poor. "no depth" is the first thing that comes to mind.

At least it was sold. I wonder why the current owner is getting rid of it.

I don't hate the color, but it certainly wouldn't be my first choice. I love green cars, but the darker the better (my Mach 1 being the notable exception, but that was the original color )...and it has to be metallic.

Chills' car is a great green.

Thanks, Grizz.

That car has litronics but they aren't on the options list?

I kind of like the green color! It reminds me a bit of a John Deere ride on pedal tractor I had as A kid. I had a lot of fun on that thing. When I'm in my boxster I feel like a kid again.
