Paint Colour combination (roof/body)
 

Hi all

I need the aesthetic input/suggestion/wisdom of members of this forum. I purchase a 1999 Artic Silver 986 with a dark blue interior and dark blue roof.

I don't like the Artic Silver colour (personal preference - no office) and have a great deal on a top quality repaint job from a professional who would redo the whole car with any colour I want. Anyhow, cost is not an issue as he owes me "big" anyway.

I like dark colour cars and dark colours in general: black, dark blue or dark green (BRG). I don't want to change the inside and the roof and will keep them dark blue.

Question: With a dark blue roof /insides, what colour would work well? I am leaning towards the Dark Blue to keep it in the same hue as the rool. Thoughts? What about outside black + dark blue roof? Would it look ok?

Input welcomed!

How about a very dark charcoal metallic

This 918 Spyder is in Viola-metalic. It looks black in some light, and very deep blue in other light. In person, the color is stunning.

I'd go with black.

+1 Black.

It may do well with the blue roof. Is the roof metallic or smooth gloss? Can you post a current pic?

Wheels?

I personally think Porsches look really good in dark metallic grey colors - seal grey or similar. How about classic Porsche Slate Grey?
Some of the new colors are nice - Agate Grey & Graphite Blue.

How about something a bit different. Google the classic 911 car that porsche made limited numbers of a few years back. The one I saw (not sure if all the same) was silver but had the two stripes going back to front (top) of slightly a different shade. Dare to be different.😊. I guess you could do with any color. Good luck with whatever you choose.

I had a Lapis Blue Boxster with the blue roof....I thought it looked pretty good!

All good ideas! VGM911, do you mind posting pictures? Dark grey....I hadn't think of that. Decisions!

Opinions needed from long term Boxster owners - Rennlist Discussion Forums

Check this thread.....you'll see a blue/blue combination at post number 13. Good luck!

A Boxster with black roof, black interior, and black paint is called "Triple black". You could do a "Triple blue" :)
