A few weeks ago I stumbled across a 1980 Porsche 930 Turbo in one of my favorite paint-to-sample colors – Viola Metallic. It’s deep enough that it certainly looks like a special color and can blend in when needed without being so purple that it looks like Barney the Dinosaur driving down the road. Turns out I’m not alone as people are still dishing out large amounts of money to paint it on the current generation 911. And what better model than the GT3 Touring?

Sadly, just like the 930 Turbo, this one is also in Europe. Although that doesn’t mean a whole lot because it could be for sale across the street and I’m still not buying it. With that aside, this one was really thought out well in terms of the trim to match the rest of the car. They went with a bunch of extended leather and deviated yellow stitching to match the yellow calipers as well as some other pricey stuff like the bucket seats, yellow seatbelts, LED Matrix headlights, Chrono package, and Bose audio.
Of course, none of this is cheap. Asking price is translated to around $295,000, which is probably in the ballpark for a paint-to-sample Touring. The standard GT3s with the wings are starting to fall a little now that supply is starting to flush out, but everyone seems to want the Touring and prices are remaining strong. I wonder if we’ll see a Viola Metallic GT3 RS?
