So, there are arguably 22 cars in "Non-Standard" colors...(Black, White, Red, Silver, Midnight Blue)...it will be interesting to see what you come up with...

The colors I listed above make up 77 out of 99 M030 968s...the other 22 were all 5 or less produced (per 968 Register).

based upon the comments at the end of the ad it would be difficult to determine if it is even safe or fit to drive.

That's funny, I missed those comments:
"This vehicle is being sold as is, not certified, not safetied, not e-tested and is not represented as being in road worthy condition, mechanically sound or maintained at any guaranteed level of quality. The vehicle may not be fit for use as a means of transportation and may require substantial repairs at the purchaser’s expense. It may not be possible to register the vehicle to be driven in its current condition."
Not particularly confidence-inspiring!?

I'm speaking of North American 968 Coupes with M030, not CS, or other variants.

I also thought that copper one looked amazing. But, to paraphrase Orwell, 'All 968's are beautiful, but some 968's are more beautiful than others.
