Hi fellas,
I was wondering if anyone knew about this color. The exterior of the car is now painted green. The trunks are factory Aubergine over factory primer. As are the door jams and such. No rust that I can see so far, cept a quarter size hole in the hell hole. Jack points look perfect. Longs are perfect. Zip rust anywhere so far. Shifter needs bushings. Came with Weterns and old tires. Seats and backpad are toasted. 1.7b runs pretty good. And the car came with all the tune up and mechanical receipts since 1986... Sweet...!!!!! Also has the factory PORSCHE service card and folder for writing down what and when you did work to the car. Since I am going to sell this car. Do you think the color will improve the value? Even though it's painted green now? The car is Kali tagged till November next year. I am trying to get a sense of price. I was thinking 2500 bucks as is. or 3-35 hundred if I start putting time and parts into it. I would appreciate your input. Thanks, Clayton |

I've never seen a count of the various colors & don't know if any exists.
Check the Karmann plate for color code. Should read 98 or L98, for custom color. Apparently, there was no VW code for Aubergine, though the Porsche paint code was 4010 (pretty sure). I'd repaint the exterior to aubergine, but that's just me. I love that color. I'd say to check the COA on the car, but they make so many mistakes & the cost is absurd these days. Karmann plate should tell the story. Pat |
