I bought this 90 C2 Tiptronic from a customer. It was vandalized and deemed a total loss. We stripped it to the metal and resprayed it in the original color - zirmat silver. Redid the wheels in black hyper chrome. This was my best looking car. Sold it before the market went crazy for $18k cash. Nowadays the motor alone would fetch 35K plus from what I understand. Still, I don’t miss the car as I’d much rather be out riding, than driving.
I normally don’t like brown/bronze colored cars but man this thing is beautiful 
Yeah, we called it a root beer metallic. What was really nice about it was the gold and amber accents. It looked even better in person. Sometimes I wonder where these cars are and who owns them. We’ve had several 911’s in our family and they were all fun cars.
Nice looking car, I love all the air cooled 911’s. The modern 911’s blow them away on performance, but there’s something special about rawness of the air cooled ones. Basically the athletic big brother of the VW bug.
And 100% on the riding vs. driving. I’ve got an old 993 2S in the garage that I’ve had for almost 20 years and it sees less than 100 miles a year these days (only 35k on the odometer). I still have love for the car and it’s my favorite model 911, but I need to sell it to someone who has more time/interest. I’m just too busy riding bikes to screw with getting it ready to sell.
