Question Porsche 993 Turbo in baby blue?

One year in the mid 90s Porsche offered the 993 turbo in a light baby blue. Does anyone have pictures of the car in that color?

Thanks

Michael

Sienfeld had his 97 993 Turbo S for sale awhile back...it was a light blue.

That looks like Riviera Blue. I think the original poster was talking about a gulf blue.

Hey! That black car on the left is mine! That picture was taken right before I got my car; Seinfeld's car was there and for sale when I got mine. His car was okay, but not nearly perfect, and I hated the color. And the price: $225k.

The color that I'm talking about looks more like Gulf Blue but it was available, I believe in limited numbers, on the 993 Turbo. I remember seeing it on the Porsche web site and there was once one on Ebay. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Riviera was on a number of 993tt's. It appears way lighter than that picture.

There was one available privately in that color a couple years back.

I'd suck a man's dick for a 993tt in riviera!

Mystery solved!

It is, in fact, riviera. Funny how it looks darker in the link above.

They made a mistake in that ad. That 996TT is Mexico blue, the 993TTS pictured above is Riviera Blue.

There's a 993 turbo s in gulf blue with an orange stripe around where I live. If I see it (and have a camera on me) I'll try to get some shots.
