What do you think of this color?

I stopped by my local dealer yesterday and this was on the showroom floor. Pretty interesting color with some cool interior matching parts.

While it is a unique color, I would have a hard time pulling the trigger on that color but then again color is very subjective

Vhave been used beautifully for ery, very cool color. Most of the folks on the forum have never seen it. If you've seen it and it looks nice, trust yourself. Various shades of baby blue have been used beautifully for years, and I don't think this is an exception. Even within Porsche, look at mexico blue and riviera blue. I wish i'd had the cojones to order this color, but I couldn't find a real pic of a car with it. Now that I've seen it, I think I would have.

Love the wheels. Not sure about color. Great to admire and compliment, difficult to own for me

Looks like a cloudy day so I'm sure it would look better in full sunlight.

Love all those blues!

You US of A fellas have it too easy..... $130k for a brand new option loaded GTS 4?? That car is over $300k in Aust, if you could get it....

You would be lucky if $130k bought you a 06 Carrera S here.

I could live with that colour very easily, it's very nice, what a car!!

I love light blue colors... ever since I saw the smurph blue E46 M3. I say a go, plenty of regular colors out there, this one makes it look exotic. Plus, people know you have to have stones to pull that color off!

You guys should import a used car from the USA, we do in Canada.
