Mike, Porsche bought their paint in bulk. Just like carpet, batches were more likely than not different. Porsche could care less, they just needed to sell cars. John W's. chart is the best guide out there. ....................Jim.

I agree, Jim. Probably variations in batches.
All the best. Are you going to Luftgekuhlt?

Re: Which Champagne Yellow is correct?
A couple of comments.
- I agree with Wes. The color balance of the first photo seems a bit off (greens, greys and skin colors just don't look right). That would mean the colors of the 2 cars will be hard to assess as to which is correct. Also the angle between the 2 cars is slightly different so that could be the reason for the variation (see my last comment below)
