Shade Green Metallic is a duplicate entry of the row immediately preceding it in the dataset, representing the same color under a slightly varied catalog name alongside the M6P code. This very pale, cool-toned metallic introduced with the 911 Dakar reads in most conditions as a light grey with a subdued green undertone that becomes more perceptible in direct sunlight. The name Schattengrün translates as shadow green — a particularly apt description for a color that whispers its green identity rather than proclaiming it. As a communication color for the 911 Dakar at launch, it aligned with that model's muted adventure aesthetic, and it subsequently joined the 992.2 standard range as a Legends color. Production take rates are low enough to place it at two paint cans on Rennbow's rarity scale, making it uncommon even among current production offerings.
