Here is an original 911 RS Carrera - do you think this is the same green as the elusive grasshopper?
Edit - oops, I mean Jeff - sorry!

Actually, thats the color I remember. Saw one long ago, a friend had it.
So, what is the color code and name?

I like the color, whatever it is. From the color I found inside the engine compartment, it's close to the original color of my (former) 71 911.

I don't know the color code and name - this is from a "found in a barn" original RS story on Pelican 911 board right now. I'm sure someone with the book "Original RS" (or something like that) can look it up.

This is a better shot thanks to Mike Mueller...
The only thing I have been told about the color is that it is the same green as a 1973 911 RS white-green cars.
Please please tell me the paint code!!!

According to the owner of the 73 RS, it is Viper green. He did not know the code, but that is common early 911 color.
