I noticed this on a USA Porsche dealer site - Truffle Brown Metallic with matching interior taste.

I think the picture is not doing it any favours for how washed out it looks.
Truffle Brown is lovely

It's as if the home owner association picked out the colour for them.

I was seriously tempted by this, macadamia 991.1 GT3 comfort. Lovely road spec and appealed to my “black sheep” mentality in that no one else would!

There was a new cancelled order Macadamia 911 C2S at Porsche Bolton some years back specced up to the nines with almost every conceivable option.

Sat in the showroom for months with a serious discount seem to recollect it was down to basic list before someone bought it.

Macadamia met is a stunning colour for a GT3. One of my faves. Looks classy on this GT2 too. It needs sunlight to really show its depth.

Of all the colours you could choose from those were someone's top pick.

The 'ivory' is worse than the 70's brown.

once it's 2/3k cheaper than it 'should' be just wrap it. FWIW I'd rather have both the babypoo and brown than black...

PTS Mint green. Decidedly reminiscent of the bathroom suite colour Barratt et al favoured in their infamously low rent spec housing builds of the late 70s.

I really like that ivory GT3 and I'm not mad about the poo brown either

Peppermint is a gorgeous colour but so linked to the 964 it almost looks wrong on some cars to me-especially with black wheels.
