Well dangit Tom that's mighty kind of you, thank you so much sir, I appreciate the warm welcome, glad to be here & hope we can get our membership to jump onboard tooTom wrote: Thu Jun 22, 2023 4:12 pm I'll add my own welcome Derry -- great to have you aboard and if there is anything I can do to help make Carpokes inviting for your local members, please just say the word. Carpokes has a very similar ethos to the PCA, so it's a great fit! In honor of your arrival, I used your car as the forum car for our 996/997 forum. I had to take some liberties with it to fit into the tiny format, and will likely rotate it with overs over time, but wanted to make sure you felt welcome in the meantime.--Tom

I don't know if your color is the same as Vesuvius Gray Metallic (a PTS color), but I think it may be and if so there are no actual photos of any Porsches in that color at PCA's Rennbow Color site. Your pic would be a great addition there.
https://rennbow.org/porsche-colors/Vesu ... 20Metallic
The main all-colors page:
https://rennbow.org/porsche-colors
Scroll down to the bottom section of the main color page where colors without any actual pictures are listed. Your color is about 16 rows down in that "missing pictures" section.

The paint number is L 40X. Vesuvio Metallic. I have two photos in that category; there are a lot of them. https://www.rennbow.org/porsche-colors/VesuvioMetallic
My mistake putting "gray" in the name.

The gray reference threw me off so thank you for the clarification!Einsteiger wrote: Fri Jul 07, 2023 4:12 pm The paint number is L 40X. Vesuvio Metallic. I have two photos in that category; there are a lot of them. https://www.rennbow.org/porsche-colors/VesuvioMetallic

I thought the purplish cast in your picture might somehow be due to different lighting, such as an odd colored sky. It's interesting that Rennbow describes your color as one whose appearance is highly dependent on the lighting, so the chameleon-like description probably fits quite well. I like it!
