My car was originally L96M, Marathon Blue. I've seen little hints of it under the two plus paint jobs (white then red) and it looks pretty cool. Does anyone have a good example of this color. I would love to see some pix.
I think the Karmann Ghias used this code as well.

Isn't Carl's sixer Marathon Blue? Nope - its Gemini Blue, just checked.

Here's Mark's color page - http://homepage.mac.com/markd/914/colors.html

Trekkor, I've seen the 914 paint code website (pretty cool), but the example shown looks almost like silver. I'm guessing it should like a little more blue. Maybe with more than one pic I can get a better idea what it would look like. I would like to see different rims combinations too.
