Baltic Blue this was called - a color offerred in the late 80's

Maybe ferrari Nart Blue as well ?

let's see if i can get a 6speed paint to sample discount

 

Doubt it, but I can help you out with accessories in that exact finish bud.

 

Get it in cobalt... I love cobalt blue

 

Too blah IMO Darren.

 

Dont do it!!
I used to love blue cars but most companies, esp. Porsche, change their lineup of blue paints so often that a car will look outdated fast! e.g. the change from ocean blue on the first 996s to whatever came next made all the ocean ones look old

 

I used to love an 80's color as well, it's called Prussian Blue. It's an nice idea to order a Porsche in an older color. It'll probably be a one of a kind.

 

one of a kind = good luck selling (or get nailed on resale)...IMO of course...

 

Ok Ok - you are all right on this one -

I must say the more I see red 997's the more I feel this is "the" color for them....

Maybe a red 997 S cab with full black leather and red painted seatbacks for the sport seats ...... we'll see

 

I thought seal grey looks better on 997 than 996...

 

BINGO. Guards Red - the only real color for a Porsche anyway.

 

How ironic that Guards Red actually brings less on resale because of the color and it really is the only true Porsche color. Funny how things work

 

The only thing bringing less on a Guards Red resale is the paint condition, bro. Unless you're trying to sell it in the cold northern states.

 

Anyone notice the limited number of exterior colors on the 997? No blues at all, no metallic black. Cobalt blue is the only blue and it is special order.
