Turbo S - exclusive ICE BLUE METALLIC color

hey guys... about to build my Turbo S... does anyone have any real pictures or has seen the new ice blue metallic color?

i like the two-tone leather interior but can only see getting the black/creme with a black exterior which i do not want... the black/titanium blue interior would look cool with the new exterior i believe so looking for pictures if anyone has... thank you!

Here you go. This is probably the colour combo that I will pick.

I've seen it.

And yes, we will be stocking it for regular stuff too.

Paint code was released less than a year ago, and we have it on our system. Shows officially for a 2011 US model release, but they can let it go anytime starting with '09 production.

Quite a few other 'surprise' colors are coming....

How does the ICE blue compare to Polar silver? They look similar.

Polar is much more silver than ice blue...much more. Sort of a cross between Azzuro and Polar. Much more blue tone that Polar has in it.

And when you see the other colors that are coming, you will really turn your heads.

I'm digging the blue. It looks very similiar to the Azurro Blue that the Ferrari California launched with.

Looks somewhat similar to a local paint to sample 996 turbo:

Love the ice blue. If you get the PDK, keep me in mind for resale in a few years.
