I went for a ride this morning to a meeting I had and just put the car away for the day. What an unbelievable mode of transportation. Makes the most mundane errand exciting.
It's definitely not a color for everyone. With that being said, I can appreciate how many owners want to play it safe with silver, black and white. Do I see a bit of salmon in the color sometimes? Sure. But mostly I see orange, and I like the way the color changes depending on the light. To each his own, I try and avoid disparaging other people's personal choices.
Agree!!! I like the fact that it is different, as compared to Lambo or McLaren BRIGHT BRIGHT orange. The GT3 RS that I saw in the showroom had so much variation depending upon the angle.
i will post some more pictures of mine once i find my good camera. the iphone cannot seem to capture trhe color. it looks really different in real life than in pictures. I love the color!
As I'm an old-time Porsche guy it occurred to me that since the original Porsche crests were orange & black instead of the current red & black. Sure enough, Porsche is remaking the orange and black crests for older cars, and true to Porsche ethos, they have the exact same mounting positions for the posts.
I realize it's not for everyone, but I like to hotrod/personalize things a bit, and what's better than an orange hood crest on an orange Porsche? The fact that it ties into Porsche's history and is a factory part made it even cooler for me. Here's a picture of the 'new' old crest installed and the original factory crest getting ready to be packed away for posterity:
