Default Meridian Silver...

What do you all think of Meridian Silver Metallic as a color? Really have my eyes on a Seal Gray or Silver cab and have never seen Meridian Silver. Is it nice? The attached car doesn't look bad price wise... has anybody seen this car?

It look s pretty fantastic to me. What'll be key is to see how the color looks under sunlight as opposed to fluorescent light.

All I can tell you is that it is in the middle of nowhere.

Never met a silver Porsche I didn't like! Car looks awesome. But see it in person - they all look better under fluorescents.

My 99 is Meridian Metalic.
It actually looks more gold than that. In sunlight it is very pewter / titanium looking, very cool. Cloudy days and night it looks pretty gold. Took me a while to get used to it, but now I love it. Dosen't show dirt either. And yes I've done the smoked markers but haven't taken new pics yet.

It's a mixture between silver and gold. It isn't a very popular color and tend to lower the desirability. That car is definitely over priced. It's a stripper. I'd defintely get one with heated seats and Bose (esp since it's a 03 with MOST bus).

The first picture I'd ever seen of the C4S Cabriolet was in Meredian, and I remember thinking how amazing it looked.

If I recall it was an option for the C4S that was quite expensive.

JES....your '99 could NOT be Meridian, they did not introduce it until years later.

Your car is Mirage Metallic, sort of a light beige metallic. Meridian is Silver with rose undertones.

I live near Autoworks and have never heard a bad thing about them.
