do HID bulbs turn purple if they're burning out?

Tonight one of the 03 C4S headlights turned on fine, was the normal color (blue-ish) for a few seconds, then it goes to a shade of purple/violet. Is this a sign of a bulb problem (hopefully) rectified by a bulb replacement? I searched but I couldn't find anything.
Thanks guys!

Wow, I'd find that amazing if it was covered under CPO. So many things aren't and bulbs are frequently excluded from post warranty coverage policies. I hope it is for you though!

Yup, sounds like the bulb will be covered by CPO - going on Friday to have it replaced - only then will I know for sure if I get charged (the service guy said he'll talk to Porsche and said he'll get it to be covered)!
