Any day now my Miami Blue / Black - Red Leather 7MT C2S should arrive ... I am anxiously awaiting the call or text from my sales advisor! I hope I don't regret my decision.

haha I think this is the ex Maharaja of Darbhanga PIII. There is a PII in a similar colour still owned by the Maharaja of Jodhpur's family. Evidently my 911 isn't the first car in this colour in India but its the first Miami Blue Porsche in India.

Saw pics of your car in other thread. Absolutely beautiful. Consider mind blown though. I thought it was GT silver!


Miami Blue = Good
Mexico Blue = Great

I'm thinking it for the GTS. Like a lot of people here. I'm on the fence. But After looking at all other colors, I think most silver and whites make it look mundane for the price. I would prefer red/miami blue/graphite blue. But again I'm open to all colors.. For me it's the most expensive decision I've taken my entire life.

Personally, i would keep the interior black (as I did on my c2s) or get the red/black leather. (Which I wanted but didnt as it was going over what I budgeted)

I *highly* recommend ticking the box to paint the interior trim to match the exterior, I have done this twice now on my Cobalt Blue '07 GT3 and my Sapphire Blue Met '15 GTS Cabriolet ...

it looks great and *is* very unusual/unique to Porsche... if I had specced my '10 GT3 (Mexico Blue) I would have painted the interior also
