Boxster Red does look "dusty" but to me that bumps it up a notch over the Terracotta. The red reminds you of getting into a much older Porsche. It is that kind of classic color. The only drawback to the Boxster Red is that the carpet looks too pink after time in the sun. I want to see how the Terracotta weathers with time, but my first impression is that it is far too orangy in color.
