    What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    Just wondering what the color of the first release is? Anyone know?.....looks GT Silver in the mag pictures, but seems to look Artic in the "live" photos.

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    looks artic to me..since it is ligther

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    I agree - the almost white, washed out look on the top surfaces suggests Arctic IMO.

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    The live photos have a Boxster red interior and I assumed the exterior was Artic Silver. The Cayman brochure shows a brown (cocoa) interior which suggests the exterior may be GT silver. Assumptions based on past Porsche interior/ext matches.

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    Yes, in that shot it does look Artic.....what about this one then?.....different car?.....looks GT Silver to me...

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    The first is Artic ,the second is Silver GT

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    Educated guess or fact? Sure looks like the same car....Terracotta int., PCCB, etc. How many of these things are running around now?

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    There are 2 Cayman S IMHO.
    One artic silver with Carrera S and another one Silver GT with Sportdesign.

    The live shots are with Terracotta (Boxster Red is no longer).....and the mag shots appear to be the same. I have seen the Cocoa/Silver in the brochure/teasers.....and since Cocoa is most often put with GT Silver.....that's probably what it is. I just find it strange that the above two pictures show the Cayman equipped so much alike, but appear to be different silvers.....a little strange for Porsche, but certainly can happen.

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    ...it looks like the same car, or at least the same plate!



    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    It's all guess work (mine too!). Arctic and GT Silver are so close that depending on lighting, filters, and photo editing, one could easily look like the other. I believe that the second pic could easily be Arctic. The differences between these colors have already been identified in posts above and in other threads.

    For side by side of Arctic and GT, check out post #85 here:

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    its amazing how much it looks like a boxster with a hardtop on hehehe...

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    I just realized that the link I posted above is not working. I don't know why. Any ideas?

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    Don't know why, looks to be valid though....

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    maybe on F6 they want no hotlinking either?

    Hey, I think I got a cayman by mistake.

    Profile...

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    Last one.

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    The interior looks like Cocoa in the first photo, so it may well be GT Silver as well (since Porsche seem to like that combination).

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    As has already been posted, Its the same car!

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    You were accidentally sold a very rare Cayman Spider. Im sure the factory will pay any price for its return!

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    Hahahaha, thanks for the pic wtsnet! i swear, if a non-car-enthusiast had to walk past a cayman and a boxter(with hardtop) he wouldn't know the difference! and seeing that cabs are "normally" higher priced, he'd think the boxter is the better one

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    I think once we see a few Cayman side-by-side with Boxsters, thoughts may change as how close they actually look like each other......

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    nice ride

    Re: What color is it......Artic or GT silver?

    porsche designer r too lazy!!!
