    Default Need help deciding on color + questions (991 cab)

    Going to order a 991 cab in the next few weeks. Got a couple questions.

    First off, what color is this AUSmotive.com » Detroit 2012: Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet

    Next would you get:

    1) White on black, black top?
    or
    2) Charcoal gray with red guts, black top?

    3) Other, please list.

    Thanks!

    charcoal grey and white are both of my favorite colors on sports car. I would say go for charcoal grey on red, it will be a bit more unique.

    Personally, I will say #3: White on Blue interior (I'm talking about the dark blue leather they offer on caymans and 997's that almost looks black until you get into the car). not sure if they are still offering it, but that's my vote! (for reference, I believe it was called metropole blue)

    Wow lot's of options for charcoal with red guts...No love for the white on black?
    Agreed the charcoal with red interior is more unique but will I get sick of the red interior?

    Other options are Platinum silver with red interior, Yellow with black interior or white with red interior

    I just saw a Platinum silver 991 C2S today in person, and that color with red guts and a black top would be SEX
    That silver is a VERY COOL color!

    Based on the pictures I've seen I think the platinum silver is gorgeous but I've never been a fan of silver. I haven't seen it in person. Is it different than the silver offered on the 997?

    I think it's coming down to white on black or silver on red

    it IS different, its darker, kind of. Almost like it has a very slightly tinted clear on it...

    id stay away from the red top on any of these cars... they look cool, but would get "old" quick IMO

    Platinum silver with red guts and a black top would be a BEAUTIFUL car!
