I've seen a riviera Cayman next to a white one and it looked epic compared to the White (and I like white!)

So I don't think the pic does it justice. Probably the fence, skip, angle and light add to it as agreed in that pic don't like it .

That skip is a great colour. Is it Viper? It makes the blue car in the foreground disapppear.

It all looks like something from Reservoir Dogs with those suited geezers lurking with their incognito getaway car. It's going to end comically badly of course as there isn't enough room for them all.

"Someone's going in that f**king skip!..."

Ha ha - yes it does look a bit dodgy. With the colour more like a well suited rent boys meeting no? Perhaps they are doing a homo erotic shoot on a building site? wink

On the skip colour yes it is nice, it looks closer to the yellow-green (see page 69 of this months Christophours).

That skip does it I change my Mexio order to that - now known as skip green!

Ye,fer real.

I would wager my handbag that one was GT Silver as it has that darker greyish tinge to it rather that the brightness and blue hue of the Rhodium. It looks good in that shot, but not good enough to pay the extra for. It's just the kudos of having a 'GT' colour that Porsche are charging extra for.

And another thing, why oh why, can Porsche not get their standard red or silver colours to look better? Everyone else can do it.

The Guards and black looks cracking in photos but (to me) in the metal it is just a tad orangey.

The human eye sees colours differently from one person to next. I concede my eyes could be 'borked' (opthalmic / GT3 engine techy term). Especially as am fantasising over DBM. There is clearly something wrong.

PS. He should have black wing supports with that. I know, for I told me so.

Red needs much polishing IMO - without a deep shine it can look a tad poo on any car. Keep it clean and shiny and it looks fab. I would only have a red car if garaging it. I think the same will apply to DBM. And that's why i like Silver, because i hate cleaning cars... :yawn:
