Saw a 2013 Boxster S in white with blue interior and top - unusual? Have one?

Saw this car online and I've never seen one like it. Been looking at Boxsters for a while now too. Looks nice. Is it unusual or just rare? And if you happen to have this color combo, did you still like the blue after you had it a while? That's a lot of blue. Thanks. RJ

Fairly rare.

There were lots of silver 996 with that dark blue interior back in the early 2000's.

Ha! It's red (the tail lights & seat belts), white and blue. You will never get tired of the color combo! Joking aside, while it may be rare, I think the combo works. At least to me it does. However, I am partial to white Boxsters. It's a good price for an S providing a clean Car Fax and PPI. Good luck!

Thanks. Didn't notice the seat belts. It looks like it spent it's life in Florida, but arrived here two months before the recent hurricane there. RJ

Nice looking car. Don't see many Porsches with the yachting blue interior.

I went from I want one to I got one! CPO 2014 base white with yachting blue, in addition the car has the painted roll bar, interior trim, mirrors and grill slats in white. At first seeing the pictures, I thought it was too much white and did not particularly care for the yachting blue. But after getting the car I love it! Very classy color combination. Came from BMWs and always desired Porsches, now bucket list checked off!

I think white is the best exterior color for the yachting blue interior. Hoist the sails matey!

I live two and a half hours away and can't get there right away. Having it inspected this weekend. I really like the unique color combo. And, it is the S model I want, and which are around, but not always in the colors I like. If it passes the inspection, I'm ready to go andd pull the trigger. Or as you say, hoist the sales. RJ

I have Arctic Silver over Sea Blue interior with a Metropolitan Blue top on my '05 Boxster S. I still really like the colors, 2 years later, all the way around. Have not grown tired of a blue interior. IMHO the blue top sets the car off very nicely.

Top has held up nicely too. 11 years old, drive year round, 54,000 miles. Only seen a few like it.

Good luck!

Dave
