Default White

This is the best color for the Cayman in my opinion. I've seen the car in numerous other colors but it didn't strike me one way or the other until I saw one in white today with what I believe to be 18" rims. Might've been an S. Anyway, it was incredible looking in white.

I agree, i saw one in speed yellow, and i think thats the WORST color for them.
Well actually I think Riviera Blue would be the best

The white one in Exellence magazine looks beautiful.
It's called Carrara white and it's a free color.

This is a problem with a solution...

I will happily fly out and relieve you of that redundant, white space-occupier! Anything for a fellow 'lister!

You should special order one in a 70s color that Porsche used to use. I vote for Viper Green Metallic (aka Kermit the Frog green).

Seriously, too many white, black, and greys. How about orange like on the new GT3 RS?

yes, i did.
a zero option, signal orange, 2007 cayman S.
PAG denied it.
i haven't given up just yet.
gulf blue was denied too.

if they keep denying the psychedelic 70's color, i may settle for a mordern color: zanzibar red. have you guys seen it in person? the swatch is bad, my good friend's c4s is in zanzibar red. stunning. the more i look at it the more i like it. he paid 800 for it back in 02 (std metallic), it will cost me $4k now.
