white Porsches make me think of the old RS 911's with the livery graphics.
Or like on the GT3 RS more recently
White is a very classic Porsche color. Saw a white CaymanS on display in the Mall with metropol blue interior. Made me drool like the time I saw a white Testarossa in Miami. Very bold for such a neutral color. I think it makes more of statement than red or black for sure.

If I had a white P-car across the lower doors I would add ---987S---
in red, or black, or dark grey, or light blue, or...
I think it would magnify the color.


not so hard to imagine this being a white 987s from this angle
BBS wheels are so cool..
(sorry SD i nicked your photo to compare)



p.s.
yes storm trooper for sure. If you can get your hands on some Dura Gloss Aqua Wax fro NAPA or Carquest give it a shot to go over your preferred monthly paste wax (like Rejex as someone noted). Its one of the better spray on waxes I've seen for light colors like silver and white. INstant punch in spray bottle, And with white you'll be cleaning often
A silver hood crest might look nice on white too.

While I don't agree with all of the custom stuff, naturally--everyone's different on that--I gotta say I really like the white. Congrats man! That sounds like it was a no-brainer for ya!
