custom color 997's?

after seeing mexicoblue's 997 and loving the color.

has anyone else on here done the paint to sample option for $4,315 on their 997..
i was uber tempted to order another but.... i have a lack of colors in my brain to think thru.. (a nice purple would be very nice)

do you have a custom color? MEXICOBLUE you better post some pics :-D

i promise not to copy the color... well unless you post something amazing and u post the code as well

thanx

Saw photos of a PURE ORANGE 997S a while back. I believe he was in the UK.

If you can't think of a color that you'd want to order, visit other car forums and see the pictures. You might like a shade of Blue, or any other color, that's not available but could be done through the "paint per sample" program.

i might special order A 997s ...then i will be 100%sure for a color of piant to sample..
my GF likes pink..anyone seen a pink color?wow..
i love riveria blue..close to the color of mexico blue..
i ALSO love orange..however that orange is not what iam really looking for..
i have concernS about paint to sample...if there is a color you never seen,then no one can promise how it will look like on a actual 997.....
good luck.;..

Be careful what you wish for...

Looks like a bag of Skittles;
1. Rosso Scuderia (Marlboro Red) [factory paint-to-sample /dealer inventory car Naples,FL)
2. Polar Silver [factory paint-to-sample]
3. Orient Red [factory paint-to-sample]
4, 5... gotta give 'em credit for originality

Viper Green (from Rennteam, below).

Seen a couple of Polar Silver cars, look really good.
BTW - what's that other green ? Looks quite good...
