This is a good example of how to do yellow. It can be intense but when you have the black glass roof and darker wheels they help offset that and make it look very nice.

I feel the same way with red. If a car is all red, I just don’t like it as much but when it’s combined with darker elements, it looks much better to me.

Oh, one more for folks who have that urge to be "bold". Comes with the original ventilated seat.

Absolutely. I've had Porsche Racing Green Metallic, Guards Red, Platinum Silver and Racing Yellow. At Cars and Coffee, the Guards Red and Racing Yellow draw the most people and positive comments.

Have a RY C2S coming in a month or so. I’ve had black and silver cars before. They’re ok, but somehow they didn’t feel that special. Well, the black one was a Honda Accord, so it really couldn’t have been special….

Have recently had red, blue, and now yellow. No more boring colors. Maybe if I ever get a more sensible sedan, I’d want to go for the stealth look.

Unlike in the US where most cars are black, white or a shade in between, in Europe, from a personal observation, cars tend to be all sorts of colors. So while racing yellow is “bold”, it is perhaps not that “bold” in Germany compared to the US.

I’ve had my RY C2S for 7 months now. Love it. I chose AK with HG black and very happy with how it turned out.
