I was wonder what colour combinations really work on a 996 turbo? Pictures appreciated

Black on Black for me (ideally with some silver highlights in the cabin).



Classy and understated.

Mine was Midnight Blue with black interior. MB is an absolute pig to keep clean / swirl free though

I was obsessed with finding a black on black car, on the same day of viewing my third black I saw this:



Seal grey is an absolutely stunning color in the flesh, so much darker and prestigious than it appears in photos. Don't do what I did and rule it out until you've seen one, acf69's photo displays its real colour well

I believe so. Never seen the 2 x colours side by side to be honest.
Midnight blue is a cracking colour as it can seem almost black. But it is not a practical colour if you have OCD with regards to keeping it looking pristine unfortunately.
