Thinking about getting a used 997 TT for a daily to replace my E55, any color suggestions? Dont want anything too insane since this is a DD. Thanks in advance. My E55 is Opal Black FWIW

alot of people use 997 as a daily driver, plus it is awd, so you have the traction part covered....you should be good. +1 from me....

If you ask me...a Porsche should be black...but I did see a silver one on the way to work today and it was nice...I haven't really seen a bad color to be honest...it's all personal preference...as long as that preference is for black then you made the right choice!!

Midnite, silver and basalt are all under the radar as a DD.

Use mine as a DD, approaching 49,000 miles since Feb 26, 2008.

Great DD car, just about any color is great, the car looks fantastic so its hard to go wrong.

Personally I think white is right
