I could look at it if someone *REALLY* was interested. It's a 7 hour round trip from my house.

Yeah, yeah... at least I own a driving 914, Clay. You need to borrow your wife's car.

i'm bidding, but only semi serious right now... and it's only 400 miles from me, and I know Gint has a trailer
i'll know more once i talk to the owner in person, i'm in need of a decent DD.
Ferg.
So, what's the beef? Do we have a pic of this purple car? is it nice? Is it the orginal color?
The only purple car I know of is the one Zois used to drive.
My car is Aubergine, from the factory.

That is funny.
Ok Im now forced to do it...
So... what color did you select from the pull down menu to make Aubergine that color in your signature?

That looks pretty clean. Do you know if Mercdev ever found a car?? If not he might be interested.

It can't be. Rusty would "never" substitute lowly "purple" for aubergine in his signature. Blasphemy!

Bingo.
color=4B0082 (indigo) is the closest I could come to.
-Rusty
So, if Aubergine is a stock color, dose anyone beside Lawrence have a pic of one? Im interested in seeing one......now.
It was a stock 911 color. This car was Aubergine from the factory (color code 98 - custom).
It's also strange because this car photographs so poorly. In pictures in bright light, the car appears almost black. But not so in person.

You need another 914 Ferg?
You'll just end up throwing a -6 in it...you know you will.
BTW: I think Aubergine (not purple) is an awesome color on a 914.
Hey, that's not so bad. My dad had a 68 Impala when I was a kid, we called it "The purple
pitstop" similar color, only yours is darker. Don't repaint!

what is the color code for the 911? I love the aubergine color... I won't even make fun of you and call it purple
some of the eggplant cars I've seen have faded and because of the fade look purple, but I love the DARK aubergine, it should be so dark some may think it's black!

Sure... Dis me some more..... 
Leave it to the Concours Weenieto buy a PURPLE car and get all hoity toity and try to call it some high falutin name like "aubergine". You just had to replace the whine and cheese tail dragger with some uppity colored 914.
Oh, and I seem to remember that before you bought your six, you had to borrow YOUR toowenche's bumblebee too.

Jest showing the pictures shows how cool the car really is, and nixes all of the earlier harassment. Nice car, wish it was in my garage.

Ok. I can handle that.
Thanks for the compliments. I think some nice Fuchs, some suspension tweaking (including some Konis), a set of SSIs, and it'll really brighten everything up.
It just needs some TLC... and some tunes.

Here are a few pictures of an original Aubergine car with the polished Fuchs on it. It really sets off the car.
And another.
One more
someone please tell me the paint code! those pics seal it.... I was debating going back to the stock(signal orange) but I'm thinking auber just won!
