Porsche's Fastest Color
 
I received official word from Zuffenhausen today, that speed yellow is in fact the fastest color that Porsche offers . I'm still waiting to hear what the second fastest color is . Anyone venture to guess ?

I have personally had several law enforcement officers confirm this from coast to coast.http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1335557844.jpg

Arctic Silver Metallic by sheer volume?

Silver I was told was the 5th fastest .

Guards Red. You see, it all has to do with wavelengths of light. Red, low on the wavelength scale has been proven to have the least aerodynamic resistance, therefore, the fastest. Its just simple rocket science.

No doubt about it, yellow runs.

Obviously the man knows what he's talking about.

Shorter wavelength (higher frequency) just so happens to be deep blue/purple (Porsche Lapis Blue). Don't ask me what I do for a living.

Porsche inspiration for their JD Yellow sample to sprayhttp://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1335568410.jpg

PS As I recall the SR71 was black

A rocket scientist, perhaps?

OK, JD, you're right...
 
So Speed Yellow may be Porsche's fastest colour, but Arctic Silver is obviously the coolest.... :D

I don't know about you, but I remember riding on a blue bus when I was young .

As strange as it may seem, the official word from Porsche is - the second fastest color to speed yellow is an entirely new one called akustisches goldgelb , or "bleeping" golden in english .

I was going much too fast.

With or without metal flake?

It depends on how much you're willing to pay-off . :)

I love the optical illusion that your color chart provides.

And Lapis FTW.

So in reality the people with the viola porsches have the fastest color according to our engineering friend Jager? Interesting maybe its time to paint everything viola hahaha.
