No I don't. I do have several photos of 'Racing Yellow' against the older 'Speed Yellow'. But note that camera lenses don't necessarily capture the 'true' colors as the human eye would see it. But at least, if both are in the same photo, it reflects how that camera lenses is capturing both colors at that moment!

'Signal Yellow' is night/day different than 'Racing Yellow'. Just as 'Racing Yellow' is very different from 'Speed Yellow'.

I have a yellow 991S, racing yellow with black wheels. It's stunning and gets a lot of comments, most of which are positive. Down side: I live in a small town, so I don't go anywhere anonymously!

Signal yellow is also my favorite color but only because RS Orange is no more available

Cayman??? You mean this one? For heaven's sake CAlexio, that is not a Cayman! Take another guess.

Thanks Eduardo, those are some nice picts. of the SY vs RY comparisons. Not to worry Eduardo, CAlexico would normally have known it was a Boxster Spyder if he and his lovely lady wasn't into the grape juice, overlooking that gorgeous view from his place.

Yes, Bronson, I think you got a point there! Cayman, Boxster Spyder, tchatchkes...who's paying attention? Let's not kvetsh & please pass the Mimosas, dear...and add a bit of champagne to top-off the glass! Isn't life grand! We approve.

Haha.. You guys don't know how spot on you are. I was actually with her typing that, furtively looking at my phone as she was trying to implement the "no more damn Porsche forum when we are together" rule, so I missed the detail.

I'm not complaining though, like me she is waiting on our darn neighbor to decide whether he is leaving in springtime so we could hopefully, finally, fit a nice sports car in the garage. She's a good girl.. Now where did I leave my Sunday mimosa?

That Boxster Spyder is Speed Yellow, just like my 996 gt3. Great color.
