That doesn't look like blue, but it looks great.

Ohsixx - don't take this the wrong way, 'cuz this comment is NOT directed at you or your pic. I don't think I have EVER seen a really good pic of a blue interior in a Porsche. There is something about the color variations on the different surfaces that you can't see in person but are very apparent in a photo. I am not sure if the lighting has a big impact on "washing out" the blue colors, but I have had difficulty getting good pic of blue interiors.

I have a Graphite Gray interior in my 996 but it has deviating Metropol Blue carpeting. I think I have been able to produce only one decent pic of the carpeting color. In most pics, if the carpet looks correct, then the gray leather looks too blue, or if the leather looks correct, then the carpet has a gray/blue hue.

I second the white with cocoa leather!!

maybe its the fact that I have a white car but IMO we see more the lines of the car in light colors. Nothing more sexy then a white GT3
