Hello Olivia. What colour is your barge?

Migration info. Legacy thread was 15674
 
Olivia 911's in Silver, black or blue - but thats it the rest don't do justice to the lines with exception to RS,specialised 911's etc. past and present.

I agree about silver on run of mill cars.



Oh and if you do come to try and sell them in other colours then you can run into problems like "that red".

What did I miss? What is the problem with red?? Which red??

Just my opinion but I think its Arena Red or Versuvius red. It just doesn't float my boat and on the resale front I saw a few of these hanging around for months in the ads and sales web sites.

Hmmm - I suspected but was hoping you wouldn't say that -

A Mate told me not to buy Arena Red but I found the right car and figured It was just him and to hell with the colour - at this stage I really like the colour but not pleased to hear it is a more widespread concept and that I may struggle to sell... damn!

Not so bad ??? (he says hopefully)

LOJO - if its the right car for you and you like it - go for it ! There is always another opinion out there somewhere. The car in the pic looks good. Plus what about speed yellow ?!


Migration info. Legacy thread was 15690
 
i think on the S and turbo versions of the 993 it looks good. i remember all the first press 993 turbo cars were in arena and it just reminds me of the good ol' days!

LOJO the car looks great. And don't worry about arena red, the rumour about it being bad for resale is a couple of years out of date. It is now quite popular, but it won't fly off the forecourt quite as fast as say black or silver.

It does look good in that photo.

I really like that red. It is gorgeous and unusual. The only colour i don't like apart from silver is speed yellow.

Noony my Sl is black. However I nearly had their equivalent to cobalt. Black is fab when its clean. Mine rarely is!!

Polar silver isn't too bad if you squint a bit because it looks almost pale blue.

i think polar blue is a great colour and a great alternative to the oh-so popular arctic. shame it is a cost option colour tho.

saw the new olive green at the m'show yeasterday. cracking colour. quite dark green with gold fleck in bright lights of show, presumably almost black in darker lights. also atlas grey is another one of my favourites. another one that very much changes depending on lighting.
