I saw a Cobalt Blue S coupe on the floor of my local dealership at the same time I bought my GT3. The blue was so awesome I almost didn't buy the 3.

Cobalt for sure!

My 993 Turbo was Iris Blue - not offered, but you could get. It looked unbelievable on the 993 Turbo, as did Cobalt. Cobalt looks great on the 997 Turbo, so my guess is Iris will as well. Plus you won't see one everyday! I am sure it will be Silver, then black, then Cobalt, then yellow, red etc.

Good luck in your decision. Sorry I don't have a picture to post of Iris Blue.
