Green Boxsters

In my area most of the Porsches, and 986's in general, are Grey. I have had a Seal Grey Box but currently have a Rainforest Green Metallic '02. While I didn't (obviously) take special photos for this post. I would like to see what you've done or seen with your, or another's, green Boxster. Post up please.

I don't think I've seen another Rainforest Metallic Green Boxster around here, but I have an '01 just that color. The second picture you posted sure makes it look a lot lighter than it is.

There's a gent at my workplace with a 99 in that color with a full tan interior, black top. It's definitely a rare color as far as how often I've encountered it, as is the metallic brown I've seen on a 987 at another one of my company's sites. There's also a recent Cayman S in a color very similar to yours at that site. These sorts of colors give the car a nice, classy look to me, versus the sporty look of the bright yellows and reds, or the everybody's-got-one silvers/greys/blacks.

I also find that people who have them in colors like this tend to not do anything to their cars, though.

I have a triple black 2002, but I was at the local dealer today to pick up a window regulator and as I was leaving a Rainforest green 986 was driving in. It was not nearly as shiny as yours in the picture, but it is an eye-catching color!
