    If you want to have a look at some snapshots showing your colour combo (very classy choice btw ) try this website:

    http://www.p-roadster.de

    It's a German website showing all colour combos available for 986 and 987 models.
    For exterior colours, click "Baureihe 987", then click "987 Farbgalerie", then choose "Nachtblaumetallic" in the pull-down menue for viewing midnightblue cars (some with sandbeige interieur).
    For a closer look at the interior click "Interieurgalerie" and then choose "Leder Sandbeige" from the pull-down menue.
    Don't show this website to the Mrs....there are too many choices...

    Re: I second that motion go with 18"s

    Thanks! Looks great! Very rare to see a 997 with a hard top! I think I saw your thread on it - the only one the dealer has sold right? I guess for the cold winter it is perfect.

    Porsche-Jeck, looks like you have had a similar buying experience, thank you for posting! The Mrs is now in bed and I am checking out the website! Great site, I like this one

    http://www.p-roadster.de/cms/dw.php?file...au_metallic_987

    I work for a German company (now HQ'd in Switzerland) and speak 5 languages but NOT German! I hear German all day and can figure it out but reading it? Boy it can be quite hard at times!

    Anyways, it is 2.45am here in Tokyo so Guten Nacht!

    Re: I second that motion go with 18"s

    Porky: yup, mine was his first 997 HT, but honestly, it's not hard to put on. The salesman (after he delivered the car and collected the check) told me he thought it was a waste of money. I won't have a real opinion until next year sometime after I've gone through the on/off cycle a few times.

    Dan L loves his (I think).

    If I were getting a cab, I would get a hard top for sure!
