Yes, for the paint alone (PTS- paint to sample). And the interior work, deviated stitching and paint to match exterior trim parts. Done by Porsche's Exclusive Dept.

6 weeks mine has been in the body shop. Kept it stock, stayed with midnight blue...kinda makes me wish i'd been a bit more adventurous.

I declare JD winner of this picture battle! Although he cheated with a slightly more expensive car.

My first Ferrari could never be any color other than red.

That's my second favorite 981 Boxster so far. don't care for the Panamera interior but that's what we'll have to learn to like.

This is my first favorite 981

Gulf Number 20 Porsche 981 Boxster S at Barber Motorsport park later driven by Cass Whitehead - YouTube

Those are my favorite wheels! If I could achieve the same look on my 986 (perhaps in a smaller diameter), I'd be a happy camper!

For a bunch-o-guys that have great taste in cars...you're color choices scare me at times...You guys need glasses.

That color defies class.

I would think that the color code for that may be: Yblue (YUK Blue)

I'm not normally into this type of color for a car, but... I'm liking it. I love the Lapis blue that I have now, but I could entertain a repaint at some point.

Nope...

There 3 catagories of ugly.

Ugly
Butt Ugly
Nothing But ugly

************
These are ugly.

Add a skeleton decal = Butt Ugly

Add a skeleton decal and a fat woman = nothing but ugly

sorry for the mental picture
