Still looking forward to the delivery of my base C2, it should be here in about 3 weeks.
Still wondering about the color though... Mahogany.
I saw the color on a piece of metal at the dealer but it looked dark, very dark, much darker than what you see on the Boxster pics above.
Are there still no pics available of a 991 in mahogany?

Thinking about buying the 19" Fuchs wheels too with the anodised heart. This in combination with black shark fins should give the car a retro look. What do you guys think?
Any place I can order the black shark fins?
Thx!

best colour i've seen on a 991.

Mercedes had Anthracite metallic in the 80's and early 90's. I had a 190 in that color and it looks very similar to the Porsche Anthracite. It's a stunning color which takes on very different hues depending on the lighting.

Nice to see some variety coming from Porsche.

Bought a anthracite brown with luxor beige 991 Cab today. That color is hard to pin point unless you own the car. Depending on what time of the day, the porsche will look from a medium dark brown to stone grey to dark grey... People could think it is different cars if they see it at different times of the day. So for me, this color hints sophistication and a certain maturity when compared to the basic colors such as red, white or black. Just like fine wine, it is an acquired taste. Btw, Porsche uses the anthracite brown to promote their recently released C4S on their websites.

I also looked at the mohogany today. Indeed a very rich color aswell. But there is a tint of purple in it that bugs me... The same way as brown in the anthracite can be a nuisance for some people.

Amalgam is correct, Anthracite Brown takes on different hues depending on light. I've seen pictures of this colour labelled both as Agate Grey and Mahogany Metallic elsewhere on the Internet!

I think, in addition to the C4S, some of Porsche"s promo pictures for the Boxster were Anthracite Brown Metallic as well.

Here's a picture of mine taken in bright sunlight, you can see both brown and grey tones:

So, to recap, Anthracite Brown Metallic comes in a LOT of colors!
