Not really...actually just had it waxed this morning, and it really looks great in the sun. It is a black metallic with just a hint of blue, but nowhere as blue as BMW's Carbon Black...if you have seen that.
As for the LCA, I will be ok

Personally, I find driving the 2011 chassis much better than the 2008 GTS...it was heavy and felt lethargic...even the new Cayenne S feels much more nimble...it is a lot lighter, and that translates to driving dynamics. As for seats, I liked the GTS seats, but I LOVE the new 18's. I guess it just depends on taste and how you drive. Both are great.
The leap forward in styling, interior, power to weight ratio and overall dynamics made me willing to upgrade now.
The seats ... sat in both, easier to get in and out of the 14s but the 18s look and feel so much better. Drove the demo for whole weekend with 18s and loved them

I saw a JBM at the dealership and in extreme direct light there is a very slight hue of blue/purple. The JBM is a winner but up her in Canada with the salt and winter I went white!.

I miss my 2006 cayman S in lapis blue, what an interesting color. It was 4 years ago Thanksgiving weekend that I purchased it, slightly used (in service about 7 months before traded in). My first Porsche.

Yes black is the best looking car IMO just after a wash. It also is the worst looking one hour after a wash ... 
. I always handwash my cars every weekend with double bucket method using microfiber wash mitts of the highest quality and use the australian lambswool duster for a gentle wipedown most nights when there is just surface dust (no grime). Hence my black cars have very few swirls.

FJS, I love washing/detailing cars. It is one of my passion. Earlier this year I clayed, polished and waxed a black MINI. You can see the wet mirror like shine. Too bad you are in CT otherwise I could play (ie wash/detail) with your cars and not take any money from you.
