I'd have to get new shoes, but I like it.

Really great color if you play for the Miami Dolphins. Otherwise people will say its Smurf Blue when they see it. Radical colors can get tiresome pretty fast (Saw a Lava Orange car not too long ago, liked it for about 45 seconds)...

As a Miami Dolphins fan and Miami local that color would've been my choice. Love it!

It's got a little too much of that Sea Foam look for me but I really think that bold colors are the way to go nowadays and this certainly qualifies. I disagree with "drcolli" in that I think the really stunning looks have changed from the more understated looks to the brighter colors. I think the charcoals, and grays are classy but have more of an old school look to them. To each his own though. I just wish Porsche would put a few brighter colors in their line up as standard or open up more PTS opportunities for those who want them.

I think it's awesome but not $3K awesome. The fact that many of Porsche's "special colors" move to the regular list later on irks me.

I think it is certainly aptly named "Miami Blue"... it is the color you would see on a flashy rent-a-car in Miami.... (Russian hooker optional)..

Depends on which planet you're on.

There are some colors that get old after a while (like orange Range Rovers) and I suspect this one may eventually fall into that category.

As for the Miami / Russian comment, the preferred color is usually White.
Everything is WHITE - from snake skin shoes, to belts, to man-purses (Murse) to cars and its interior trim.

The 80s is calling. It wants its shirt back.
