Macadamia Metallic

I've actually had my car for a couple weeks. I let the dealer keep it on the show room floor for two days when it first got here, and from what I understand, they took three orders for Macadamia Metallic P-cars (don't know which models).
Resale ??? I'll worry about that when the time comes. All that matters right now is I LOVE my new C2S, and I get a lot of compliments on my Macadamia color combination: Standard sand biege interior w/deviated carpet, black intsrument dials, turbo wheels, bronze tinted (18%) windows).

I like Macadamia it looks very nice if its ordered with brown leather and all alluminium parts for contrast and silver seatbelts.

LOL! It does look like its a UPS 997. I'm not a fan but as long as you like it that's all that matters.

If you can, please post pics taken with different light so we can fully appreciate the new color. I never thought of a brown Porsche but actually i kind of like it. I wouldn't buy one but, still, it is at least different from the usual grey/black/blue.

There is a Macadamia C2 in the Norwell MA showroom. If you are local check it out. Supple Beige leather interior (not full), Sport Chrono, Makassar wood, dual chrome tips and Carrera sport wheels.

I was no fan of brown but now I am. This car is stunning especially in the way the beige interior works with the Macademia. $90K MSRP - a bit painful for a base C2 but it is amazing. More luxury than sport I suppose, but it probably the best looking 911 I've ever seen.

Metallic Brown is really what this color really is. Saw it at my dealer on 2 different cars...very ugly color.

I like the brown, but would ditch the dark wheels.

I think silver, titanium, bronze or gold finish looks best with Macadamia Brown Metallic.
