Awesome color, do you mind posting a close up shot of your taillights? They arn't all Red like most 968 taillights, and the turn signal does not appear to be amber like J-Spec tails.

I didn't know there was anything special about them...

Okay. Fine by me. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img] I like them like that.

Here's a video from today and some pics. A little slalom cup with the Norwegian Porsche Club. Great fun!

Gorgeous colour - thanks for posting! I've seen that colour [or similar green] on the GT3's here in California.

In one of the pics in the the first group, your headlights appear to be on but not in the up position, [lets keep the puns to a minimum]. Is this common on Euro cars - 2 mode headlights?

It's not an Euro-car ... but perhaps ROW [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif[/img]

Yup. They aren't fully on. We have a middle position called park lights. It's a second bulb in the headlights producing only about 3W. They just look more powerful cause the picture is taken at dusk.

Actually different countries have different requirements and all can be classified as ROW. European cars seem to have more trick lighting options, [e.g. ability to turn on a turn signal light solid when parked].

A blue interior with a green car? Almost as bad as the magenta interior I saw on an Amazon green coupe once.

Is that a re-paint or did it actually come with those two colors?

Very cool car, sport seats too! There is a mint green with blue interior cab out in europe somewhere. I've seen photos of it previously. Here in the US there is a rubystone red cab with a magenta top and a magenta/gray interior. Have yet to see the car but they made it.

Video added: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQtyMjc-bwI
Not much, just a drive-by filmed by my dad last summer.

The car is now in the garage for the winter, whilst I'm looking for new wheels.
Does anyone know which sizes will fit in 18" regarding both ET and width? (since the original 17"s in 7,5 ET65 and 9 ET55 are so f...ing hard to find)
