Either one is fine, I'm partial to Nat Brown though.

I have a midnight blue 997 and had a couple black cars. The midnight blue is just about as bad as black for keeping clean, so I think it's a horse a piece.

However, either one of those color combos is exceptional. The black with terracota is very classic... Though maybe the midnight with natural is more unique...?

I'll take midnight blue over natural brown if I had to pick.

Blue+Brown combo wins here.

I recently saw a White/Terra full leather interior car...for me the full Terra was too much, at least your example is broken up, which makes it better.

That blue one would have been in my driveway already had it not had blue deviating carpet. I have seen its price drop for a while and its a pretty good deal now. Love the midnight and dont mind the interior too much being such a loaded car but wifey says the "orange and blue interior is hideous"

I still like it better then black on anything... black is a full time job

Basalt Black is a full time job.

The standard black is a career.

I remember you saying that you want Sport seats for your back. Go for the blue one! I really like that blue deviated carpet.

Another fellow posted his 09 C2 for sale here awhile back that was Midnight blue & brown interior and deviated blue carpeting. Some high res pics and it was clean, clean, clean. Looked awesome and unique!

Weren't you looking for an 06 with higher mileage though to use a DD? Decided to change?

Blue for sure!!! That was the exact combo on my 2001 so I'm biased!

Natural leather (Terracotta is special not natural leather) always gets my vote over other leathers. It has a richer feel and look to it especially with daily use. Adaptive sport seats though heavier is also another plus. For some adaptive sport seats may be too snug a fit and that would cause them to be seated on (rather than in) the seats. So that is something to consider when u make a choice.

I loved my black -06 but yes....it's part time work keeping it presentable. Meteor grey on the other hand has to be one of the best colors invented to hide dirt. I'm kind of **** about a clean car but short of driving through a rain storm I can easily go for 2 weeks without touching it except windows and wheels. Nice break compared to the every other day choir with the black.

Black - meh, too much work

The search is exhaustive. But I've "narrowed" it to 05-06 S cars or 09 S and 4S

Either get a improved/997.2 and justify the $$, or get a higher mile 997.1 and save some $$.
CPO's save me on the warranty costs, but the 997.1 will get a Fidelity for roughly $3000 so that is in the decision making as well.

I can't see paying more for a 07-08 than what I sold mine for...and there's nothing that compares to that deal I gave.

The blue is just Perfect, but I admit that the cleaning part blue or black will be lots of work.... Who cares, it's a porsche baby!

Good luck!
