JSF101

My dealer is supposed to have one in this week or next

in the meantime, I found these pictures
kinda hard to get a fair idea with artificial lighting
looks like color choice will be between umber (fairly safe) and auburn (more of a love it or hate it)

JSF, I really am having a hard time deciding on the Umber vs Auburn. I would love to hear other people's take/comments on these two color choices. I am spec'ing a 2011 CS with cognac/espresso interior and do not know which exterior would complement that interior.

I'm going with espresso interior

either exterior color would look good with your cognac/espresso interior

I think the Auburn exterior will be similar to Nordic Gold in popularity/resale
i.e. not very popular and a difficult resale (hence my comment about love it or hate it color)

if you're worried about resale, play it safe with black/white or silver
if not, choose the path less traveled and go with Auburn

My color choices are the same. Right now I am leaning towards Umber/Umber+Cream or Auburn/Luxor Beige. Seen Umber/Luxor Beige at my dealer. I love it, the wife does not. SHe wants a color that stands out more. Has anyone seen a yellow one?

I think someone should take away the bottle of Armor All ... Yikes

It's an interesting color. But not for me. It would be better with more red pigment IMO.

Get the Auburn Metallic, I can see in your eyes it is the color you want...... then buy Sherry a Boxster for autocrossing and all will be happy

Nice, thank you for posting pics of Auburn metallic. I live three hrs away from any Porsche dealer and rely on such pics. Color looks okay. But that tire dressing

Does the Panamera come in the same color - or is it just very similar

I really liked the color on the Panamera -- Although I am partial to black Porsches.

They had a lot of 11's at the dealer the other day -- from all accounts its a better automobile than the previous versions. The original model is a better looking car from all sides IMO. The 11's are very feminine looking compared to previous versions. What is up with the wheel arch trim !!

Not sure what I am going to get next.

This color is very similar to the color in Nissan Murano. And their color looks better, actually. Doesn't work on the p!g, IMHO.

Either that color comes off bad in a photo or...Bleh!
