I'm just amazed that there was a second owner

Dr Ferry must be in his grave.

That's a weird coincidence as I have just seen the same green on green combination on a coupe and just when I thought that was the worst look I saw a new 997 Turbo in a weird light mettalic colour with a silver leather accents including the steering wheel grip sections. Yuck!

[bund]

Come on, it could be worse!

It could be a tip!

[loach]

I kinda feel sorry for it, and can't bring myself to condemn it. And as has been said, at least it's a manual.

It's like the girl who stands all alone at the party, because no-one wants to kiss her.....

[drybeer]

I quite like it.

[drybeer]

Sorry I can't keep a straight face!

Ugh!

ROLLS ABOUT LAUGHING

[Schmalex]

It looks like it's going to tip over backwards with that wing on the back.....

But at the end of the night someone always takes her home

Quote from his ad

"This car has 'Love Or Hate' styling with the colour and kit, but I have to admit, the vast majority of people just have to say how much they like it. So are you one of them? If so, you could be the proud owner very soon".

Sez it all really !

FWIW I love Jade Green. I sould have ordered my GT2 in it! (joke)

I reckon if he drops the price it'll sell no probs. I mean, imagine it was offered at £10k ~ they'd be queuing down the road!

Worst colour combo I ever saw was a Speed Yellow boxster with Nephrite (green) full leather. EUW! It was in with Porsche Merlin at Notts many years ago.
Victoria.

Unless he finds someone who's specifically looking for that colour then I reckon he/she's probably gonna have to drop it quite a bit to move it. Might be around for sometime yet!

[rimmer]

i does look pretty awful but saying that its not just what was the first owner thinking but also the second and the future buyer.....

Would a respray be out of the question to sell it? I mean if you take a photo of before you do the respray no one is going to question you doing it. Just say you was going through a difficult time when you ordered it. You would need to spray it silver to go with the interior though.

[paultje]

It would improve the car no end to get rid of the dreadful wing on the back. After that I could see it sold to someone with strong female 'traits'. The wing is too masculine, the colour NOT. So girlies who post on PH..who wants it?

[warmfuzzies]

I got lost by the title thread, but then again...........
