I've been using the search function for the last hour to find some pictures of carmon red, particularly on a turbo and with 20" sport designs, but nothing. Some of the links posted in the archives no longer work, so if anyone has pictures post them so we can all enjoy!

Got a Carmon red, but it's not a Turbo, so if you still need it, let me know.

I'll take any. I saw Jamy's page and he's got some killer shots on there - I like this one in particular:

as it really shows the true color in the sunlight. I don't know why more people get this color - it's fantastic

All right, I just uploaded a few b/c PBase seems to be taking forever. I hope you don't mind some of the winter dirt :-). Refresh if something doesn't come up.

Saw the ebay one, but when pictures are taken during overcast days, the carmon looks too purple. Enigma, thanks for the pictures - fantastic last shot! Man I love this color!

Is it me or does the painted rear bumper lower valence seem to not match as well as the front lower bumper valence? Is just the lighting?

EnigmaWmn

Definitely looks like it's a shade lighter. Though, on the 1st & 3rd photos it matches. Will take a closer look today.

EnigmaWmn

You know what it could be? I lightened the photo + straightened out levels/curves in PS around that area.

Looks to be a lack of clearcoat, at least compared to the sheetmetal/body panels.
My Cayenne valences are just plain black, not painted, so I don't have any experience with this.

EnigmaWmn

That lower portion (front & back) isn't the same material as the body panel, and from what I remember there is no clear coating in the front. Will have to investigate :-D

EnigmaWmn

I checked that rear bumper all over and there is no color difference, I have no idea how/why it came up that way in the photo.

schvetkaaks

I know why - it's a textured plastic - a different material. Here is the one I plan to purchase (tomorrow!) and you can see the textured material.

Wanna trade?

Bring a radar detector with you, and don't drive top speed either! - Take it from me, I already got alot of heat on this forum for that (rightfully so).
