Next week I have to put my spec for my new boxster.I have a yellow one now and fancy a change.so my choices are
Met grey.
met black
speed yellow
bright red

I will have a black roof and grey leather with 18" carreras.
so what do you think.

red

[JamieBeeston]

black would be nice..

I also like Yellow on porkers, but dont quite know how it would suit a boxster.

certainly looks nice 'imho' on a 996turbo cab i was speccing.

[PERCYPORSCHE]

Red.

I hope Don doesn't mind me posting this pic of his car up but RED looks very cool on these cars!

Mungo that is a nice looking motor where was the photo taken?

I think the met. grey looks a bit dull on the Boxster. Speed yellow (if you don't mind the glances) Black if you want to stay anonymous (and are keen on cleaning the car!).

..and it is Scotland.

WTF

Black looks nice with the 18 wheels

I saw a white Boxster with a tan roof in California last year and in those surroundings it actually looked really good. Not sure it would work in the UK though!

I reckon white is poised to make a comeback.

It's Don's car and I believe the shot was taken in Scotland... He'll be sure to see this thread soon and enlighten us all. Again, hope you don't mind me posting your car up here Don!

No problem, mungo, mate...

The pic was indeed taken in the Highlands of Scotland. Superflid recommended the drive to a tiny little spot called Diabaig around Loch Torridon.

The drive is sphincter-clenchingly terrifying but, after I had recovered my equanimity and repented of my vow to smack said Superflid in the gob if I got to meet him, I got some fantastic pictures - including this one of the car.

Superflid was duly forgiven and I would take his recommendations for scenic routes anytime...

So the pic is on the return journey from Diabaig at a scenic lookout. Apparently it is not five minutes from getcarter's summer residence - had I known I would have offered to buy the man a beer...

grey! (see profile)

at least dear God not white!

I love Seal Grey on 911/Boxsters. Very cool!?

IMHO

There was a red Box S on the floor at OPC Silverstone the other day - complete with hardtop - it looked appalling!

The Artic Silver looks good .....

Cheers, Maurice

I think the red works better now all the lenses are white - with the orange lenses there were just too many colours. Of course I would say that - having a red one...

All Boxsters look strange with hardtops on.
