Moral of the thread: Once you go black, you never go back.

If you go white you might say, alright.

Are you reading the same thread? I didn't read anything near that.

I have an ocean blue. I thought it was lapis blue and found out that it wasn't when I bought the wrong color touch up paint. Then I thought it was midnight blue and bought the wrong color touch up paint again. However, I have not yet thought that it was black. Nor has it ever been black.

My interior was red, but now it's black. Weird.

I don't like to be confused. My Silver car is Arctic Silver Metallic and my Black one is Black. The Black paint code for a 99 is: A1. Everyone knows that 'A number one' means best. There is no going back, but it never was anything else, so I couldn't go back ever. Ever.
My white one has some black and my black one has some silver, but there is no Glacier here at my house. It's Biarritz, which is only 2000 and 2001 and located on the Atlantic coast of France (This is what I learned today).

Titanium? Oh-Too-S Titanium? I think you are mistaken mister! Unless you are talking about tiny trim pieces or making up your own names, you are just flat out wrong and your car may actually be black for all we know. Porsche employs a highly skilled and PhD educated team to make sure they name their colors ('colours' for our UK members who all have black tyres on their autos) precisely and there is no 2002 titanium color.
I expect that this so called 'titanium' car of yours is actually Guards Red and you sir, are color blind. I demand that you post a picture or I will report you.
