Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Leading evidence: 'Run across this' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Run across this' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I DO consider myself a lesbian - I mean, I like women, right? If there's **** on the menu, I'd lean towards lesbian ****... And I live in Asheville, NC, a very concentrated lesbian mecca of sorts - lot's of comfortable shoes here.
Oh, the car - well, hmmm - cool, but I wouldn't want to be driving it,
Someone out there paid $8K to do a Paint To Sample and I'll bet there's someone else out there who saw that ad and said "Wow!" and is going to buy that car. Individual tastes, it's just the way it goes.
I seriously considered a Paint to Sample a few years ago because I really liked the Glacier Metallic Blue that BMW had in the 90's but Porsche didn't have such a color (neither does BMW anymore), but the cost was insane. Just couldn't see getting it back on resale.
Then, about a year ago I saw a F430 done in almost the same color. Doh!! Should have done it, it looked fantastic.
Actually, Metallic Paint to Sample is only $4315 (+/-), and I really like this particular color. Not gay or lesbian, and I don't wear rubber shoes with holes.
I loved the original early 1970's Aubergine referred to in the first post by the word eggplant. Porsche has had several versions of that over the decades. This may be a true PTS, though.
But what do I know. I drive a giant weiner.
Tim, where is the purple porsche love??? It takes a while, but the unusual colors grow on you (kind of like a fungus). In a sea of silver cars, purple is really easy to find. I can't be the only one, because a Vesuvio metallic 996 was featured on the first cover of Total 911 magazine (my personal favorite).
You really are looking, aren't you? Good luck...give the wierd colors a chance.
Just day dreaming! It let's me see more Porsches so I don't go into withdrawal shock. I hate getting the cold sweats.... shakes.... fever.... and high anxiety.
I don't have enough years left in my life for that color to grow on me!
Now, if someone wanted to buy it and give it to me.... well, that's a different story.
Not for me, it's always a balance. Cars aren't an investment, they just keep dropping in value every minute of every day. So, I try to keep some level of balance when getting a new one. Color doesn't make the car drive any better.
Could be a case where that color is associated with personal attribute (ex. college color or the guy played ball for the Vikings) For me that would be a nice color initially but long-term I'd lose interest in it. The nice thing about "standard" colors (i.e. silver, black, white, red, yellow, grey) is that they are timeless.
I've seen a lot worse. That is not too bad, just going to take awhile to find the right buyer or take a big hit on resale value.
The Green ones with the green interior are still worse in my opinion.
I think they used that color on the 928s in the 80's too. The artist formerly know as "Prince" should be all over that one. Too bad it's not a 1999!
