Interesting that 4 are that "Raspberry" color... <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/glare.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
Most are cabs, which TOTALLY makes sense! <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/rock.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

1. the cab did come first. Yes, I read it in one of my 968 (or 924/944/968) books. Porsche had so much trouble converting the 944 coupe into a cab, this took years of body reengineering. They then decided they would design all sports cars first as cabs, then add a roof to make a coupe. So sadly we can't win the coupe-is-better argument, other than they look better, are faster, better on the track, quieter, have more room, and look better, and are faster, more trackable, quieter, have more room, look better, and ..... -- oh yeah? No way! Way! Is not! Is too! Step outside! Yo mama!
2. Can't understand the raspberry red either, as Langley and everybody knows, silver is the fastest 968.

Langley and Syncro are clearly members of the highest intelligence and reliability...I would absolutely believe their opinion on the fastest color...no question!
JMHO,
