oh no .... another one bitten by the brown Porsche .
I must ask .. how does one go from Gt silver to maacamia ? If you must have some brown .. why not do the Gt silver with cocoa ? But even before you do that have you seen sea blue interior with carbon? On a gt silver exterior this would look so good. https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...es-please.html

No I'm not switching - I just mentioned that I like the Macadamia color more and more.

Also, that carbon and blue is interesting. Wow. You can really do some neat stuff with the 997 colors. That lighter stitching offsets well. I don't like carbon, personally. I think it's run it's course. I have a carbon roof on my current M3 and it's <yawn> boy racer.

(off topic - I went to a function at our airport yesterday that had the Panamera in yachting blue with cream and the yachting blue leather dash. Striking)

If you're going with silver, go with a darker natural color, not a light one. There's not enough value shift between silver and light/natural color and the poor contrast makes for a "blah" look, which is why you dont see that combo offered by most auto companys. The terracotta would look good, or natural brown, but skip the tan/creme colors.
