Here's samples of Polar Silver with sun and shade. I don't know if they belong to anyone here or not?
It looks silvery blue in certain lighting as everyone has mentioned. Obviously LSM has to see it in person to make his own decision.

Lou, I almost bought an 03 polar silver until I saw it next to an artic silver. I guess it depends on the person but my dad hated the polar silver and paid much more money just to buy our artic at napleton. Make sure you see the car in day and night. Car looks real silver in the light but gets the baby blue goin in the night. The resale value is not a problem with polar silver. If you only have the car for six months just do it. Are you looking at the ps GT2 at luxury motors? Dan

Anyway, I looked at a PS GT2 at Rizza, car was way too expensive so I passed.
The Polar Silver is definately a cool color, but, for me, I would have passed anyway, I didn't like the blue hue and prefer arctic silver. I wish it would have worked out, but, I got a line on a black one, we'll see.

I special ordered the Turbo and had to wait 4 months to get it shipped with that color and options... well worth the wait! I fell in love with the Polar Silver paint on my dad's previous 993TT.

Of the stock colors, Seal Grey is my fav... followed by Artic. I'm not say'n the car looks the best in those colors, but simply that I prefer colors that I don't see too often, but still look good.
There's no denying that Black and Artic looks hot... but, if we had a 100-car gathering, my guess is that those two would probably be a top 2 or 3 color. Looks hot, but doesn't stand out in a crowd. For me, the color of my Turbo has started many a conversations.
Of course, in the end, it all comes down to what you want. So, whatever you feel, that's what you should get... 'cause opinions are like a-holes, and everybody's got one... especially something as subjective as color! Good Luck and have FUN, Lou!!!

Lou, i know u hate luxury but why not try them before ur quick to judge. I stopped by, they have an artic and polar silver gt2 with under 1k miles ceramic brakes, listed for $150k and they might sell it for $143k. Or an 02 clean turbo black for $90k, i almost bought it. These are clean cars, no doubt take a look for urself. Lots of their cars are messed up but u have to know the owner or at least have some knowledge about cars. I would go for the ps gt2, its only six months.

I advise everyone to stay clear of that Chop Shop.

As many know, my 2004 Turbo was totalled in an accident. I have an opportunity to replace it, but, the car is polar silver. It is hard enough to come to terms with Arctic as I like black usually, but, now polar. Those who have seen it, what do you think?? I don't want to drive around in a baby blue car, does it look that way or is it simply look brghter silver. Input is appreciated. This car would only be for 6 months until my Turbo S comes in.

My opinion: if I was ordering a car to be built, I'd pick polar. I love it in the light and shade!
