From what I have seen polar silver on other vehicles (996 TT, 993's,etc), they usu get sold really quick here in Cali. I personally love that color, but I have never seen one on a 986 before.

Care to post some pics of the vehicle you are looking at?

Looks too brown in that light. But the differences are too subtle to catch unless you had a picture of a Polar and an Artic car sitting next to one another.

FWIW, Polar Silver is more blue, GT Silver Metallic is more brown, and Artic Silver more neutral and in between them. I love my GT Silver, but would never willingly pay $3200 or so extra for it. (It came for free in the 550 SE models.

This is meridian...another favorite of mine. As mentioned before, polar silver has a bluish tint to it.
