paint to order questions

Although I love my current 996 C4S in Atlas, I liked the color of my 993 in Arena red/cashmere even more

I am considering special ordering a 997 in Arena red with cashmere-black 2 tone interior


I have 2 questions

1)for those who have orderd paint to order, does Porsche "get it right"?

2)Since this was a previous Porsche color, do you think they will reproduce the color to look the same as it was in the past?

thanks

Arena will be very easy. Yes, they will get it precisely right.

It will be produced to the same exact tone and finish you recall. We paint it often in our shop, and the 993 version against the 996 version is identical, other than water based vs oil based original paint, it is the same coloration.

Did you consider Carmon?

I like Carmon, but is a little tto "purplish" for me, I thought of Arena for the C4S, but wanted a change, but I miss it
