Let’s take a look at some more green 911s. Porsche’s greens run the gamut and for now we’ll move away from yesterday’s dark metallic forest green to what might be the most iconic green of them all: Irish Green. It is seen here on a very early 1965 Porsche 911 and is contrasted with a light beige interior. I must say this interior color seems rather unique among early 911s. I can’t recall seeing many like it and it presents a stark contrast with the Irish Green exterior. Everything is said to be numbers matching and matching colors. Neither the paint nor much of the interior is the original material, but all looks in nice shape now. The price, of course, is quite high, but this could be quite the find.

Wood wheel and wood dash. You can even see the detail of the wood grain. Those are part of what I really love about these early 911s. They weren’t around long so it really adds an extra level of desire to these already very desirable cars. But really they just look so great. Like the painted dash of the 356 these are the vintage touches that have a feel of age. I never feel the same sense of joy when I see wood trim on a modern sports coupe so I can’t entirely explain the allure here. I guess it’s just the age.
The biggest issues with this 911 come down to verification of the numbers and originality of everything. We aren’t shown any of that documentation in the ad, though it is said to be available. Further verification of the mileage also should be necessary. If those points check out then this asking price may not be too bad for what is a fairly uncommon color combination and a very desirable exterior color. But I just want to stare as it’s such a rare treat to see one of these and there are so many lovely details to take in.
