What about Macadamia Brown Metallic. A friend has just purchased a 997 Turbo in this colour and it is stunning! That's what I would look for, as well as Slate Grey which works equally well.
Here it is in the garage having a Ctek charger fitted. Not the best picture.
Dark Turd Brown Here it is in the garage having a Ctek charger fitted. Not the best picture.

After faffing about and not really finding something that ticks all the boxes, I seriously am looking at the 997 Turbo. Never really been something of interest because of cost. Starting to look good value and may well after 3 years get me to sell on my 993.
A well set up 997.1 turbo will take your breath away. Fantastic cars and pound for pound one of the best Porsches on the used market.TheHound said:

I'll never forget taking mine for a service to my OPC and seeing a new C4S in the showroom in macadamia metallic. It was a cancelled order and mega spec. The car was hanging around for months over the summer and they really struggled to shift it even at a substantial discount.
One PH er has ordered his 991 GT3 in the same colour.....brave man.....think its the only one in the UK.
For the Turbo I would consider its the worst colour available along with green metallic and the car would need to be cheap cheap to secure a sale.

I happen to quite like it myself. But I did buy a Cobalt car so you may not like that either
I really like cobalt, but to be honest, I would have any colour as long as I could ditch those awful wheels.The are so naff and blingy. They really let the car down for me.

I am a big fan of Cobalt (your car looks fantastic BTW) and as said in a previous post will be one of my top choices when I buy a Turbo next year. Edited by TheHound on Saturday 20th December 20:58

Thank you. For me it had to be Cobalt. I looked at/enquired about three Cobalt cars before I found the right one. Edited by TheHound on Saturday 20th December 20:58

I saw a Macadamia turbo cab with sand interior at Chester OPC earlier this year. I thought it worked really well and liked it.
Equally before buying my cobalt one I nearly bought a Dark Olive one with sand interior. Its almost black with a green tinge. great spec, brave colour combo, the numbers for the deal didn't quite work so hung out for a cobalt.
