I believe it is because we all bought these cars for different reasons:
  • some bought them for tracking
  • some for the driving experience
  • some for modding and breaking records
  • some for the looks
  • some for the Brand
  • ....
and the list will go on-and-on. Many of these reasons will lower the value of the car. Personally, 911 was my first love (back in 1975) and I just love driving the car. I really don't care less about the value of the car since the day I bought her.

And I do respect those that value the value of the cars; if not for them, we won't have low mileage cars.

Do what makes you happy it's your car, be a leader not a follower. So if you want orange and black grow some ***** and start painting.

I love that color combination. I have been strongly considering doing a tangelo Pearl color with the black carbon fiber accents! Your car would be beautiful. Go for it!

Paint the car....it's going to look amazing.....orange and black very nice combo.

No one knows if you may sell it higher or lower.You may find some to fell in love to your car and pay what you want for it.

Paint it and show the pics....we'll be waiting for it.

i would wrap it. not only will it look great, it will also protect the actual paint of your car.

Guys, when talking about wraps I've only really seen matte wraps that look acceptable. Who has had good experience with a gloss wrap?? I've seen some guys do gloss black roofs and they look like ****.

Not a 996 TT but pretty cool wrap done by Falcon Graphics at the Miller Motorsports park. Bucky knows this Evo well having had a few battles with it in some MPRA races
