I bought one off of eBay - a Purple Cab: they didn't have one in Horizon Blue Metallic. Nice little model to stick on my desk at work.

Why is it so hard to find a black coupe?
&
Why did they paint so many of the models purple and gray? Gray I kinda get, but purple? How many real purple cars sold? Im guessing 5.
I love my 968 for what it is & don't hate it for what it isn't!

My collection is very modest, but I do keep my eye out for unique ones here and there. I prefer the NZG models to the Minichamps but the Minichamps appear to have a bigger variety.
I've got:
NZG Silver 968 Cab
NZG Purple 968 Cab
NZG Horizon Blue 968 Coupe
Minichamps Silver 968 Cab
I also have some other interesting ones - 911, 959, 928, 944 914 in some interesting colors...
...but the one I'm most fond of is the NZG Blue 911 Targa that is probably the closest color you can get to the Pacific Blue Metallic on my '82, so I actually do have one mini version of my actual car. I don't think there is a White Cab or Black Coupe.

Brian,
Nice NZG collection!
Attached is photo of my current 1:43 Starter resin collection with some 1:24 Hasegawas that have been converted to 968 TRS models. 1st of 3 Starter set (Red is complete), 2nd (Yellow) is being built and I just got the 3rd model in the set off Ebay. Hope to have all 3 by "Taking it to the Streets" event.

Ah...you're the one who beat Bob on the Blue Metallic Starter 1:43.....I figured it would have been someone here. Just hope he doesn't revoke your membership privileges!
