Coverage and how to read this overview
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.

There is one on ebay right now and yes it is a dark purple. A buddy had one locally for a while and it looked good but the interior would be a little too much for me. <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2401458659&category=10156" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2401458659&category=10156</a>

sky-- you must be kidding! <img border="0" alt="[hiha]" title="" src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" /> a purple convertible top over a purple body! <img border="0" alt="[ouch]" title="" src="graemlins/c.gif" /> no wonder the mileage is low! no one in their right mind would want to be seen in this monstrocity! <img border="0" alt="[nono]" title="" src="graemlins/nono.gif" /> i would never have expected to say this about a porsche until now! <img border="0" alt="[ouch]" title="" src="graemlins/c.gif" /> i'm surprised that the factory even accepted this order! even a purple dash and steering wheel with white seats! barf! <img border="0" alt="[oops]" title="" src="graemlins/oops.gif" /> not even barney the dinosaur could drive this thing with a straight face!

The pics of that car linked to above are kinda misleading. I've seen a few of these Amethyst cars with the light interiors. They are not as "Barney" colored as this car appears in the photos. The purple, especially in the interior, is more subdued and not as bright (or washed out as in the eBay photos). Yes, very early 1990's look, but much easier on the eyes in person than in these photos. Jay 90 964

Ignacio -- I think you hit the nail on the head, this is barney on wheels! Or in other words, if barney was a car .... Here is a question for all -- If some one gave you this car with the stipulation that it must be your daily driver [and you couldn't have it repainted], would you accept the gift?
POST 9Original post
sky-- you pose a cruel choice--the idea of a free porsche is very tempting--BUT in the end how could one maintain one's self respect walking up to THAT every day? <img border="0" alt="[ouch]" title="" src="graemlins/c.gif" /> i'd think i'd pass up the offer at this point in my life but if i were younger...who knows? i'm glad this is a dilema i never had to face

there are already 9 separate bidders on barney! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> the bids have exceeded $20k! i guess there's more of a market for this beast than i imagined. the fact that the car currently resides in las vegas, though does not surprise me. <img border="0" alt="[bigbye]" title="" src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" />
