Is This Porsche Pink?

[Fat Old Sun]

I thought it looked tidy but being colourblind I thought it was silver until my wife said it looked pink?

Is that Meridian Silver? A chap I know has a Carrera (I think) in that colour and yeah, it’s odd, it’s got a like pinky/purple/mauve tint to the paint? I quite like it.

Silver


Back in the day you could get a special 944 turbo silver rose edition…. That was silver with a hint of pink.
IF this looked pink it’s the light, or the camera that’s done it….

Had a boxster in that colour.

Looks fab in the flesh and changes hue in different lighting.

Def not pink in any light mind

Meridian is really pink in some lights, to some people.

It used to be referred to as 'nipple pink' in the trade during the 986/996 era.


Great colour though.

This shows the pink tint quite well...

I am seeing Arctic Silver there, which was prolific and therefore more likely. I had a 986 in Arctic and it looked like that. BUT it was a colour that looked different when it was dirty. In fact, it is the one car I had that looked nearly as good dirty as clean.
