Does anyone own a Metallic Olive Green (Verde olivia metallizzato) GTV, preferably 2000? I'm reconsidering the color choice for my 73 GTV resto (biancospino) on account of having bought a white 911 3.2 and (unrelated) starting to see my car for what it is; a product of the 70's not 60's. I realize that a lot of my color reference pictures are from stepnose cars, and while the body & accent lines are not that different in the later cars, the interior is significantly different and part of me doesn't want to fight the 70's but to embrace it. So one of my look and feel references are contemporaneous Montreals such as the attached. I really love unusual, grow-on-you colors. I was dead set on getting a 911 in a really great weird color and was hearbroken when an Oak Green Metallic with Nato Green leather interior slipped thru my hands. I love the white/red leather car I ended up with but it does make me want some hue on the GTV.
I'm also curious to know if anyone knows of GTVs that were painted in Montreal colors from the factory, which I hear was done on special request (in principal) but have no evidence to substantiate this.
So if you have an AR213 car, please share pictures! Especially if for some reason ended up with a black interior, which I know was never offered from the factory but I have already re-upholstered my interior (and did a pretty good job I think) in black vinyl. I didn't initially consider AR213 on account of my interior - the olive looks great with a warm interior as the factory knew - but I'm starting see the appeal of a black interior with olive, it has a sort of military aspect to it which I like. The value of AR213 is relatively light and should work with a black interior better than say Verde Pino which would look terrible with black in my opinion.
