Default WTB Funky color Turbo S

I am looking for a 16-17 Turbo S in a cool, weird or funky color. Maybe Mahogany Metallic, Maybe a Paint to Sample...The car is for a very good friend of mine who is ready to move quickly.

Figured I would try here!

Mahogany Metallic is definitely a funky color. I love mine. Good luck finding one!

And for a 2016 too, sheesh....

I saw mahogany metallic in real life on a 991.2 C4S. It was very pretty but not for me.

Somebody asked me if the car was purple the other day when I was filling up with gas. The color changes quite a bit based on lighting conditions.

Weird, I didn't think that mahogany metallic was rare at all - there's two of them in my neighborhood... and only one silver.

Wow. I've never seen another Porsche in Mahogany (any model), and I attend lots of PCA and local club events. My previous 997 turbo was Macadamia Metallic, and I rarely saw another car in that color.

Hehehe yeah I have a bargain for you, my guards red TT - rare since everyone pays extra for carmine - for only $250k lol
(perhaps it was not priced in USD?)

If you're after unique, another option is to buy whatever car you like for a reasonable price and then wrap it in a way you find appealing. Maybe change it every 2-3 years to keep things fresh. While paint has better texture and durability, you're not limited to simple colors and can consider it essentially disposable. One of the guys locally has an R8 with a kind of fun silver camo type theme.
