Default Cobalt Blue!!

Hi everyone, I was hoping those of you with Cobalt Blue cars could post some photos of this extremely rare color. Most especially if you have cobalt interiors I would very much like to see detailed photos.

I understand the interiors are two toned, purple and blue, and photos are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I don't have a cobalt blue car, but I do have a black interior with cobalt blue accents -- dash and trim bits.

Default Stunning!

Thanks Bill, that color is just far out. You must get a lot of comments, the car loks in tip top shape.
Best,

Best,
Yes, this color is unique and sometimes gets you comments. When I saw it at a local P dealer many years ago I knew I was going home with it. Black interior also helped.

I was always interested in knowing the number of Cobalt 964s produced, but cannot find the answer.

my turbo is a show stopper. It gets more attention than any other car I have owned and is always the center of attention. Everyone loves the color and it is extremely rare.

I am having a Turbo S tail painted for it and now finding out that it is also one of the hardest colors to match properly. Although it can be done but is not easy to find a good shop willing to go through the efforts.

Beautiful car you have there and I agree black interior works best with this color. You also did a nice job capturing the color which is not easy.

AFAIK mine is the only cobalt blue turbo 3.6 with black interior. there are 2 others both have gray which is nice but nothing compared to the black.

If you ordered cobalt blue interior here is a bad picture of the breakdown of accents that go along with it. It is the bottom color chart.

I have only seen one Porsche with cobalt/navy and that was a 968. Not common at all.

Working on getting the paint to match hopefully I will have the issue resolved soon.

The Bucket is Pawtucket. Where the S turn is on I-95 Just before the Mass line.
