Wanted to buy some touch up paint..anyone have a source for a good match?
Could always go the the dealer but probably a better way. Local auto parts stores only seem to carry paint matches for domestic models...not German.
Go to a good Body Shop Supply store that sells high quality paint and supplies to shops. Most of them if you give them a paint code, will mix you single stage touch up paint or the color and clear seperate... We have a shop here in town that I use and the paints are awsome; If it was summer I'd have a good excuse to take the Porsche for a cruise to Ann Arbour and bring you some paint

Depends on how big the chips/scratches are. Have you checked out Dr. Colorchip? They advertise in PCA Panorama and seem to have fairly good results without looking blotchy.
What I like (after you select your make/model/year) is you can buy a complete kit. The kit includes the clear coat you'll need to really match your paint. I really hate paint sticks. I have a few nicks ont he car now that were filled in with a paint stick. Less noticable sure, but there is a noticable hole where the missing paint is. There's quite a bit of filler, paint, clear coat above that bare metal on a Porsche.
