i love my seal grey. I'm more of a white car guy, but i really don't care for the 986's in white, so seal grey is the next best in my eye.

I have to say that black is the best color only because mine is black. Devilish to keep clean. If I have a choice it would be some kind of blue or BRG(Brit rac. green). Yellow or bright red shouts "look at me". There is no wrong color as the Boxster looks good in any color!
Actually BRG would be the best but I would think that it is not OEM.

Any shade of silver is appropriate because of the history of German Racing Silver. But for my money, it's gotta be Guards Red.

There is no best color but Guards Red is definitely the FAST color.

Speed yellow is pretty awesome:


Though the Lapis Blue on my car is pretty sweet too:


You might also ask yourself, is silver a color? One thing is certain, it's boring!
