Think it's blood orange or signal orange? Isn't it the same as the new gt3rs colour?

English Name: Tangerine
German (correct) name: Blutorange
Paint code: these vary, but it is often code 018 for all '68-'73 cars.

Not quite - the 997GT3RS orange is simply known as "Orange" (how imaginative :? ) and it's a relatively washed out orange compared to Blutorange.

Signal Orange is paint code 116.

Both oranges were used during that era, and they are very similar.

Here try this link ... it gives you all the early 911 colours. The 72-73 are the ones you are probably interested in

photos do not show colours accurately unless taken by the same camera with the same settings...

The main 911 picture is from the website Ian points out, and it is shown as being Gulf Orange!
