    From our perspective, Paint to Sample examples of cars like this 997.2-era Porsche 911 are some of the hardest to find. Paint to Sample services being chosen for a car wasn’t nearly as common in this era, making them so much rarer and hard to find than modern Porsche models.

    This particular car is a phenomenal spec. Painted the 964-era Carrera Cup-originating Maritime Blue is already a great choice, though quite obscure on a Carrera 4S. Inside, the spec continues with additional leather, red stitching and more.

    We’re always fans of the selection at Ryan Friedman Motorcars in Glen Cove, NY and car such as this one are exemplary of why we’re so quick to express our fandom.

    Green on yellow was a thing for a hot minute amongst some cars in the 1970s. Outside of that moment in history, it is a unique and acquired taste sort of decision. No doubt polarizing, we have equally no doubt that such a combination on a rare and low mileage 993-generation Porsche 911 Carrera 4S would be treasured by the right buyer.

    If you’re that right buyer, you’re definitely going to want to take a closer look at this.
