Are you referring to the image above this post? If so - that's not going to look beige because it's not platinum silver. If you saying that Platinum Silver doesn't look beige - it's the lighting - there is a gold flake hue to it which is evident in certain lighting conditions. It's more beige than other porsche silvers have been, historically.

Cheers.

I have seen several in person, and almost bought a Platinum Silver GTS before I bought my white GTS. To me it doesn't look beige. It might be more beige than other Porsche silvers as you said, but I never considered it to be anything close to beige until I read this post. To me, it looks silver. Yes different that Arctic or GT, but still looks like silver to me, not beige.

I would guess platinum silver - too light to be GT and too rich to be arctic - which they don't make anymore any hoot.

WOW - SHARP CAR!!!

Having owned a GT silver car I would have to say it looks like Platinum Silver.

Without a doubt that boxster is Platinum Silver. Love that color. Can't wait to check out Eric's 991.

Its platinum silver, looks awesome in that Boxster.
This color has a lot of shades an hues regarding of the angle and light that the pictures are taken.
Sometimes it looks a little champagne and sometimes cool silver, but earth tones are definetely present, works great with expresso / red interiors.
