No worries mate. The truth is that I was making educated guesses much of the time when I was compiling these pics based on the year of the car and the colors that were available that year.

BTW, I'm 99% sure this car is Viper Green Metallic

Luft: Intetesting. 137 is Gelb-grun. But Gelb is German for Yellow. I think this color is Yellow Green in English.

That's true U Boat. As I understand it though, in Germany it is stated as yellow green but on the history sheet from Porsche it is listed as Lime Green in the U.S.
The car actually is painted yellow base with a top coat of green. This is evident
from the small rock chips in the fender lips. From what body shop guys tell me this is what gives it that intense look.

I think they may have called it Yellow Green in the US too. This car was listed as "Yellow Green" by the seller (a reputable used Porsche dealer who always lists the exact color name) and it appears to be very similar to your car. In any event, it's a fantastic color.

Great compilation, thanks. Had no idea there were that many P-greens.

I can see why you say that, but doesn't it look a little too yellow and not quite bright green enough to be Viper?
