Special Colors aka 'Paint-to-Sample' . . .

[LongRanger]

Cars nowadays seem to come in only a handful of colors . . .

. . . black, white, silver, gray . . . w/ red for the 'sporty' types

Don't know what it is --- lack of imagination? . . . fear of 'standing out' too much? . . . 're-sale' down-the-road?

Whatever it is --- bright, vivid, imaginative colors just don't seem to turn up any more . . . at least not in any of the roads that I drive or parking lots that I hang out in


Porsche has always offered custom paint on the 911. Still do --- as far as I know. Der Faktory would paint your car any color you wanted . . . all that you had to was provide a sample chip, pay a premium + non-refundable deposit . . . . then wait. I've heard that these cars could take as much as a year to be delivered . . .


. . . oh-yeah --- but what did you get for your money? . . . . and your wait? . . .
