Fresh from the paint shop! :cool:

Holy same-sex marriage all over the place !

I predict an onslaught of Boxsters hitting the body shops wanting quotes on colour change to viola metallic. Damn you Particlewave!

Only someone from bubba's army would make that comment and I know you're not from THAT camp jd.;)

Funny I just came across this thread. Here's a zoomed in picture of the car on a nice sunny day.

It is a very special colour and I always receive compliments

Very nice! What colour WAS your top? Mine is hard to describe but is an off-white or linen colour. I may go to blue in spring or black or original- also there's the wine colour which looks rich too me but will take the attention away from the paint. I like the top to standout from the body as it makes the fact that it's a rag top more obvious- more special. To me a rag top screams 'for pleasure only!'

It was a blue-ish color. I was debating to keep it oem color or change it to black. I went with the black bc IMO it makes it look newer and cleaner.

Post a few pics of your car ...

Beautiful color!!!!!

Amazing color car looks sweet and very well sorted.

RUF front bumper is the ultimate version. Love the ride height too. Those too mods alone make a huge difference.

Please some more picks of you car man truly inspiring - My fav boxster next to Particles

Tremendous color.Was that one of the factory colors?

Yes it was. I've heard the option was 3-5000usd. Don't know the true number.

It was $4100 in Canada in 2001. Only available on ' build to order' cars.

LOVE IT!!!
Purple is my favorite color. Makes me want to get mine repainted

Looks like an Eggplant!!!

43K miles, sport seats, turbolike wheels.

The viola metallic paint is listed as a $3010 option on my cars' window sticker. The story I heard was that it sat in the showroom for months, so either not a special order or the buyer fell through after the order.

...........excuse me while I kiss the sky!

I think I found my dream car:

That's the optional Sport Design. It's also on the gauge surrounds, back of sport seats and the door latch surround.

Another purple Porsche
 

I just saw a '14 Panamera Turbo with amethyst metallic exterior. Very close to our Viola metallic.

the purple is gorgeous on the boxster.

bump for the love of purple

Here's my Viola Metallic 2001 Boxster S.

It was originally a paint to sample color for a 993 Turbo S and later used on other models.
