There's a gent at my workplace with a 99 in that color with a full tan interior, black top. It's definitely a rare color as far as how often I've encountered it, as is the metallic brown I've seen on a 987 at another one of my company's sites. There's also a recent Cayman S in a color very similar to yours at that site. These sorts of colors give the car a nice, classy look to me, versus the sporty look of the bright yellows and reds, or the everybody's-got-one silvers/greys/blacks.

I also find that people who have them in colors like this tend to not do anything to their cars, though.

I have a triple black 2002, but I was at the local dealer today to pick up a window regulator and as I was leaving a Rainforest green 986 was driving in. It was not nearly as shiny as yours in the picture, but it is an eye-catching color!

I've seen a few in that green. It shouldn't work, but it absolutely does!

I'll take some shots of my Rainforest Green 01S. I bought the car just because of the color and then spent nearly as much on a flat6 motor. It's not BRG, but actually a better shade of green IMO and perfect for a roadster. This is an old picture. It has different wheels now, 18 inch 10 spokes, but that's about the only cosmetic change I've made.
