Question Polar Silver 997 Photos?

Anyone have a photo or two of a Polar Silver 997? I'm a diehard PS fan. It is massive $$ however, so want to see if I should settle for Arctic, or spend the moola to stay in the Polar groove. Thanks

Have you seen GT Silver in person? It is a stunning color, but also expensive.

Polar silver is an awesome color. Nothing really like it. GT silver is my fave, but it is much more steel colored (grayish) than the blueish Polar silver. My advise, get the PS! If you get artic or GT, you'll always be thinking about that unique PS 997 that you never got!

Yup, bring it back as it is a legacy color for Porsche!

I've got a Polar Silver 964 that I'm continually amazed at what a wonderful car it is, and just love the color. Probably right, I'd keep kicking myself if I did not order it, especially if a Polar Silver S drove by. Still, maybe no one has ordered one up yet due to $$$.

I think choosing a paint to sample color will also significantly increase the wait time for the car. I think the order guides mention something along the lines of 3 months or maybe even more.
