Re: Pics of new C4S qua Blue
Joshua:
Nice colour!
..it would be nice to see Cobalt and Aqua next to each other to see the difference
exactly!
i own a 997TT cobalt and would like to compare both colors side by side, to see if should i keep with the ''BLUES'!
if side by side i dont like the aqua blue i really dont know wich color i will choose!

Re: Pics of new C4S qua Blue
Congrats on your beautidul new car, Nilesh 
I've seen the Aqua Blue side by side with a Cobalt Blue just a couple of days ago. Cobalt is a bit like shallow water, while Aqua is like deep sea water - just in my eyes of course (probably the analogy doesn't make much sense - just came to my mind). Both are great colours

Re: Pics of new C4S qua Blue
Many congrats Nilesh - she's a beauty!
I saw Aqua Blue for the first time on a 997.2 back in mid-October. It's a lovely colour. IMHO I prefer it to Cobalt. PJ gives an interesting simile - that cobalt is like shallow water and aqua blue is like deep water - exactly right - it's like increasing the 'colour saturation' of cobalt making it a richer, deeper blue.
Your number plate is definitely going to get you noticed!
Enjoy in good health mate!

explain it better! i saw the pics but the aqua in the pics looks tooo dark... maybe because there is no SUN in the pics it change so much the color..
but it has the same metallic bright of the cobalt just a little darker something like that??

Re: Pics of new C4S qua Blue
Yes, verrrrry nice.
One observation though, they really tightened up the styling of the front end, headlights, parking lights, radiator apertures: That's great! OTOH, they screwed up the rear end with the taillights! Oh well..., nevertheless, it's a perfect front end now. I love the Germans, they are all those wonderful qualities when you think of engineering and precision; they get an A+ none better in the world, IMO. "Artistically?" As far as _styling_ cars is concerned? I'm gonna have to go with an A- or B+. Oh, wait..., I forgot about BMW' slide into stylistically alien and sickening confusion recently..., let's just say BMW's stylistic fall from grace is a temporary setback for the Germans, ignore it and not factor it in to their overall grade.
