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.

20 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Creating third poll for "special colors" to hopefully cover all possible 996 colors.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Feel free to post pics of your cars as well. Would be great to see all these colors -- especially the rarer ones.

POST 4Original post

Why does my window sticker say Midnight Blue Metallic was a $825 option, then on the next line, N/C?

Sorry for missing it. I used this document as the reference for colors, I guess it's not complete ( https://rennlist.com/forums/attachme...aint_codes.pdf ). How do you know the production count for that color? Part of the reason for doing the poll was to get a rough idea of production counts per color since that doesn't seem to be data that Porsche has generally shared. It would be great to know if there is publicly available information on color counts.

that's just me screwing around all the 40th Anniversary Editions (1963 worldwide, 7xx US, maybe North America) all were GT Silver Metallic I kid that we are the elite, perhaps because that color was not available on MKII's, even as PTS https://www.caranddriver.com/news/po...ary-auto-shows Special exterior styling cues include the same silver metallic paint color used on the Carrera GT , a 911 Turbo-style front end, an aluminum "911" logo on the engine cover (in place of �Carrera�),

POST 9Original post

Dark Teal Metallic / M6W PeterP - Odd DTM it isn't on that list of yours... Not a common color, no doubt, but it comes up quite often. There's 3 of us, already! Here's a great resource for Porsche colors: http://www.elferclassic.de/technik/f...lack-gruen.php Pro tip: Command-f "996", as the site covers every model.

POST 20Original post

@FirstFlatSix - this is the poll for "special order" metallic paint colors. Speed Yellow is neither of those things.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
