My 73 came painted Signal Orange from the factory and I like that color but I'm not feeling that color for when I paint it after the rebuild! I really like Fashion Grey I seen from a 911 Carrera S

That said let's see your non original paint colors!

Depending on the light it goes from Blue to a Purple to almost Black.

I can't claim the choice, I bought the car already painted.

On my short list... that's similar to another 356 color...

Especially since someone else just did the stone grey... love both colors

Not a 914, but I always thought this color (similar to 914's Palma Green Metallic) would look great on a 914:

Another vote for Graphite Blue Metallic, looks even better on the Cayman S I saw at the dealer a few weeks ago.

I'll have to look to see if I have a pic, but I had a 914 painted in GM Autumn Maple Firemist, it really looked good with all the black. You have like metallic though.

The painter did his best to bring out the metallic without making it look like a dune buggy or a glitter boat. It was the 80's and I was very tired of a faded Saturn Yellow, which isn't my fav anyway.

I spent a ton of time taking everything apart so it didn't look like a color change. Funny thing is the guy I sold the car to in '93 ended up repainting it a few years ago, back to yellow.

Iris Blue My 1986 Carrera factory color and name. I wanted to paint my 6 this color but was out voted. The 916 in SF was what I believe this color. Look at my DD Lexus in back. Very close. My dad always had medium blue cars when I was growing up.

I had a plan to paint my 71 Nova Hugger Orange and changed my mind minutes before the paint store was about to mix it! I ended up going with Lemans Blue with Super White rally stripes.

M y favorite GM color.

They had a few blues from other years that come close, but I think LeMans is the best (Bahama, and at least one other)

That is what mine was repainted (so-so job) when I bought it in 1986.
Well faded now.

I like it but will be picking an original 914 color, but not the original.

Probably Adriatic Blue.

If you're going to do a Porsche in that color (I love grabber blue btw), you've got to do Mexico blue...
