If there is a Forest Green Metallic, I am not sure if it is different or someone using the wrong term.
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.

Whats the scoop on this color? Love it hate it. Would you pay more for it, same or less because it isn't desireable?
Thanks
PS I'm also curious on pricing, see me post below. Much thanks in advance
It has been my observation over the last year that many of the members don't like green Porsches. I, for one, think that the Forest Green is a very rich looking color from some of the pics I have seen. Unfortunately, I have yet to see Forest Green in person. I think it is similar to Speed Yellow in the fact that it appeals to a very small percentage of P-car enthusiasts. It is definitely on the opposite end of the "popularity spectrum" of silver/gray.
Because it is relatively rare, one would think it would sell for a premium price. But because there are so few buyers that are interested in having that color, you probably can get it for less than the more common colors.
I have seen one and actually really liked it. However, to me it's more a color that goes well with Jags, MG's, Triumphs (i.e., British racing green). I also think Tim is correct as it relates to resell... have seen som esitting around for a very long time and they seem to be priced at a discount.
I guess that explains the price of this car. It looks to be a super clean 2002 cab, 6spd aero kit, full leather tech and wood pkg. 42k miles for $49,000. I was bought as a CPO car so it does have some warr. remaining.. hows that price sound???? any opinions before I take the plunge????????????
Sounds like the perfect car that I'd want however can't afford that kind of money right now. Can you email me the pics you do have? I'm just interested in looking at them. I'll IM you my email address. Thanks
This is my first post, thought it might be a good time to chime in. I just bought a Rain Forest Green 2001 C4 Aero. In the first two weeks of ownership, I am getting more looks and compliments on it than the tricked out 92 Gemballa I used to have. I will post the photos when I figure it out. Great site so far, great info.
It is Rocky Mountain Eurosport.
It is near me.
You want some advice? Stay far away from them. I have stories that would make you cringe about those guys.
Here is the car just for reference:

I will try to figure it out today. By BTW, my sister and brother-ini-law live in Concord. He drives both a 911 and a 928 GT and is a PCA member. My guess is you guys have crossed paths. As the local plastic surgeon, you might have seen some of his work running around town!!
Well it turned out to be a dog. From 5 feet away it was perfect. Int was great. front bumper looked fishy and when I asked the owner finally fessed up that it was hit. New bumper and complete respray of hood fenders bumper etc. oh well... off to the next one
I jsut bought my 2001 C4 in Rain Forest Green 3 weeks ago. This is my first shot at uploading, so any snafu's, I apologize. This is the only file I cold upload. I used lo-res on my camera, says it is over 150mb. Any idea how to get them smaller or to upload a larger file.?? In person, the color and combo is STUNNING! Aside from the factory aero, it has 030 suspension, full leather, C/F, Hi-Fi, etc, etc. Great site!!!
Nice looking P-car! You can resize your photos using MS Paint or a photpshop software, or you can do it on the web at this site.

Please post some more pics because we don't see too many Green P-car here.
THANKS!
the resize site works very well. I will take a few shots and get them posted. I think Rain Forest Green might become the new rage for P-cars!!!!
Is "Rain Forest Green" different from "Forest Green?" The only three colors of green taht are currently available are: Forest Green Metalic, Dark Olive Metalic, and Dark Teal Metalic.
If "Rain Forest Green" is different from "Forest Green" then the only way to get RFG is through the "paint to sample" option.
I have the 2001 sales book, and the only standard "green" color shown is listed as Rain Forest Green Metallic. My color code is L2AI. The 997 in the local showroon is showing RFG as an $800 upgrade. If there is a Forest Green Metallic, I am not sure if it is different or someone using the wrong term. I saw one listed on autotrader by a dealer who obviously has no clue, he is listing it as "Jungle Green!" Hmmm.
I pulled the "Forest Green Metallic" description directly from the Porsche web site car configurator. The Porsche site could be wrong, because I have found a few other errors on the configurator. One obvious error is the "Leather Seats" and "Full Leather" option descriptions are reversed.
I just looked at the 2006 order guide. It also lists "Forest Green Metallic."
Rainforest Green and Forest Green Metallic are two different colors. FGM is a deeper green, more along the lines of BMW's old Oxford Green standard. When I was shopping for my Targa, I saw a 996TT in a Manhattan showroom that was Forest Green with Natural Brown full leather interior. Very tasty.
