White Boxsters, Where are they ????
 
Is it just my imagination or are white Boxsters a rare occurrence ? I have only seen maybe 2 or 3 on this forum, excluding mine of course. I really wanted a black one when I was looking but the white with black top has really grown on me. Now I am quite happy with it.

I've seen several Boxsters around here. Green most. Never white. One speed yellow and one nasty light yellow.

kefboy 09-08-2014 06:44 AM

White here!

jmatta 09-08-2014 08:34 AM

Many white ones in northern Illinois...a friend has a white Spyder.

They do seem to be rare. Blue, black, and silver seem to be the most common colors around here. One of the most attractive color combos I've seen on a Boxster (any generation) is White with Tan interior. Just a beautifully clean understated look.

A few weeks ago I saw a white one with a Zeintop. He was too far ahead in traffic and I couldn`t get a pic.

White is the new silver. Lots of modern white Porsches around here.

cas951 09-09-2014 07:56 AM

I too have a white one.

Come to think of it, I rarely see white Boxster here.

White with tan interior here. I agree a real beautiful combo. And I have never seen a white boxster on the road, besides mine. There is a yellow one here in town i see every now and then.

I have a white w/tan Cayman and Love the looks of it..!

A great cool color during the hot CA summer time :-)

I suspect their getting repainted to Seal Gray

epapp 09-09-2014 01:18 PM

I suspect they are getting repainted when the 1990s paint fades to yellow :barf:

Mark_T 09-09-2014 03:51 PM

They're pretty common around here - lots of chicks have them! :D

dghii 09-09-2014 05:22 PM

I've bought/sold two 98 White/grey Boxsters. Good looking cars! White/tan is a favorite combination for me.

TeamOxford 09-09-2014 05:30 PM

IMHO, white is a great body color for Boxsters. And for almost any sport car, for that matter.

But with so many posts from white Boxster owners...........why no pics?

Just wonderin'............

White Rules..... But so do all the boxster colors.

E986 09-12-2014 10:09 AM

Is there any place that details how many boxsters in any color were made? I too feel like I have a color that I don't see often (arena red) but that could just be me.

Arena red is probably my 2nd favorite color for boxster. # 1 color is yellow.

OKCShooter 09-14-2014 07:54 AM

White is my all-time favorite color on the 986.

gmboxster 09-19-2014 12:16 PM

Nice pictures Paul. Thanks for sharing. A Boxster in the snow looks like a fish out of water.

johnmarkac 09-28-2014 07:27 AM
