Hi MSINDI havent see you in forever..

My 997 is of course Metallic Midnight Blue and it too drives me crazy showing scratches.. love the deep color though.
I got it under control, in sun looks good, but today was overcast soo its gorgeous. I use Rejex, I like that stuff for shine too.

Well they must have changed the color because Midnight Blue is a metallic color.

The scratches you just need to take it to a proper detailer, it is no different than the kind of care you would give a Black vehicle.

The car I drove in Austria back in June was Midnight blue! A beautiful color but I personally won't want to own one because it does show scratches like crazy!

I have a midnight blue, yeah scratches are noticeable if you look for it, but other wise, my friends think i wash my car everyday.

Would do it again

Guess who...me again
I've had 2 blue Porsches, blue lover here!
Ocean Blue
and
Midnight Blue....
Ocean had alot of green, and Midnight has alot purple.
Midnight is trickier, but I would do it again, cuz this deep color is soo nice and glossy even when just sitting in the garage. It is all in how you take care of the paint. Cali freeways are brutal, need a clear bra to protect the front.

I have a great detailer, so I think I will be okay. Thanks for all your input.
