I'll get proper pictures once my other Norev 964 arrives, but here is the Carrera 4 in a (very) dark blue.

Lovely. I initially ordered the black, cancelled it at the last moment. Hoping for future additional colour options.

The one I got is dark blue metallic, I will do my best to get the blue color in photos soon. I nearly got the green metallic version, but a little too expensive since they're limited to 200 pieces. There is also a tempting Maritime Blue or Signal Green version.

I grabbed this picture online, more blue looking here:

that looks outstanding...love the color & Cup wheels. I think I'll end up with red with the D90 wheels, though.

I also got a red one, the Carrera 2 version with the D90 wheels. Other than red not being my first color choice, I actually prefer the D90 wheels on the 964 believe it or not.

ah...interested to hear your thoughts. I like the Cup wheels and have GT Spirit's widebody 964 C4, but don't have a model with D90s.

1/18 Minichamps Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2. Not a perfect model, but it has all opening parts and nice detail throughout. Not sure how it compares to the Autoart version of the same car.

Great unusual color. I have this in Guards Red and love it. I think the AA was very good too...maybe some finer details, but it was a newer release. Like the Carrera RS (the 70's one), I liked the wheels better on the Minichamps.

I have the Minichamps 911 Carrera (930) and 911 SC Cabriolet (930). Decent models for the time. At an average of $70 CND. Both back from 2009-2010.
