Caveat emptor...see the color in the flesh before ordering.

Of all the Porsche blues, Miami is one of the most 'meh' to me. Doesn't have the strength or depth of Voodoo or Mexico. Better than Graphite though.

Miami Blue vs Riveria paint samples from the ACR 1 of 1 program.

This is in the event you can't get PTS- a high probability. Given the other choices, Miami Blue is pretty compelling.

miami, in my opinion looks ok in full sunlight. When its overcast or cloudy, to my eyes, the green/yellow undertones really come out.

I would recommend seeing it in the flesh before picking it......it's very teal-ish aka miami dolphin as has been pointed out.

I'll definitely see it in person before ordering it!

I think the blues will in general look great on the .2 with all the extra black accent bits.

My feeling equally. If not PTS, Miami will be down to the final two of my choice.

Miami, in the sun, is far more aqua than the pictures above. I'd go as far as to call it turquoise. I don't like it. Of course i once said that about lava and look at me now!

Agree as well. No pts for me and then i'm leaning towards Miami.
