Default 2006 4S Cabriolet Polar Silver how rare?

Currently have a 2006 4S Cab and curious how rare the color combo is. It's Polar Silver with Sea Blue interior and Metropol Top. I have never seen a Polar Silver 2006 911. Is there any website where I can research this information?

Has anyone seen a 2006 in this combo?

Thanks,

Joe

It sounds pretty rare! Post a pic! Unfortunately, Porsche doesn't publish production numbers by color. They are even difficult to find by model.

It looks very nice. I've always liked Polar Silver.

I think in general 4S Cab is an uncommon combo. Not necessarily "rare" though. AWD, for most people implies driving in adverse conditions...generally not suitable for top-down motoring. Personally, I love mine. AWD stretches my driving season and I just love driving with the top down.
Not sure how "rare" the colour combo would be though.

That looks like Arctic to me…are you sure it's Polar? I like Polar way better than Arctic. Polar has a distinct blue hue.

If it's in fact Polar I believe that to be very uncommon. The beauty of PTS!!

I'd have to agree.


Side by side comparison helps.




Good thread on it.

Thanks and not for sale. It's funny that the color is subtle in pictures for sure, I can tell you once you have a Polar Silver one it is night and day from Arctic Silver in person. It is definitely Polar Silver.

I have the same problem. I have a car that was painted an optional color which I Think it costs an extra $3000. I wanted to find out how many other C2s were painted that color that year but was unsuccessful in getting that information. I also was unsuccessful in getting them to tell me how many other cars we're option like mine in a particular year
