Silver / grey are very common. I always loved the Red and that was the car I wanted for a long time! SY was my second choice. Never understood the silver / grey craze...
If you look on autotrader, etc. grey / silver are all over the place... SY will be harder to find.

well, the ones on autotrader, cars.com, ebay, craigslist, and here at least. Looked at rennlist as well but didn't see much. Am I overlooking other for sale sites?

i wanted white it was my 2nd white porsche, glad i waited for the white car to come along. now all are cares are white , two cars ago they were all blk.. who knows with the economy the may be all silver next time (shopping carts)yellow was my 2nd choice
Personally I was put off yellow about 10 years ago, when my friend came over in his Yellow Ferrari, and the gate guard rang me and said you have a visitor and he is driving a Banana! It has stuck, no offense but every yellow car I see is a Banana. I actually like the color on other peoples cars, just not mine. I am a dull Blue Guy, don't want the attention.
From the chick magnet perspective, if a woman knows what the car is, without being impressed by the color, that's the one I want, not the ohhhh look at that yellow or red sports car. Even better get a Porsche emblem, put it on a Red Convertible Beetle, those chicks would never know the difference.
Let's not kid ourselves here, we bought the TT cause of the car's under cover appeal. We could have got the poor man's version (no disrespect intended), if we just wanted the chick/head turning appeal. Only a trained eye can tell the difference. Porsche will never attract the Ferrari or Lambo head turns anyway, I would like to think we are beyond that.

Black or grey are good for starter Porsches.
As I got more addicted (perverted), I started taking a liking in the wild colors.
My next color might be apple green or orange. Can't help it, but I really like those colors. Why buy an expensive car and start thinking about what other people think or what the resale value is ? We buy them to enjoy ourselves, don't we ?
