Since I am going to repaint the car (yes it looks good from 15 feet, but up close it sucks)... I am thinking of repainting the 914 a different shade of yellow.

As it sits next to the Elise, I notice that the sunflower yellow (L13K) is quite bland. I have had toughts of making it match the Elise (which is a bit more orangey) or painting it a real Porsche color such as Signal Yellow.

I read in a previous post that 914-6 #5210 was painted Signal Yellow. I would like to see a picture of it.

DaveP informed me that #4 is Signal Yellow... might make a good tribute to #4!

What do you think?
