No glare issues at all with my Artic Silver.

I totally agree with nautiquelfe. The Silver may not look as great as the others after a good wash, but it certainly hides dirt well.

get some sunglasses

I think you will notice that the hood on a Boxster slopes toard the front bumper substantially. I can't even see much of the hood unless I put my seat up really high - then my head is above the roll bar. You should test drive one and you will see what I mean. My silver boxster has no more glare than my black car. Go to a parking lot and you will observe that the suns hot white glare off a painted, polished metal surface is the same no matter what the color car.

I think sunglasses are in order for you. Maybe Richard Beloff will sell you a pair. (He seems to use this site as his personal flea market.)
