Has anyone heard of the colour to sample MOONSTONE? In 1978 I purchased a new 911 SC that color, it was unreal. It was a white pearl colour with a faint purple shadow in certain lights, very unusual.
Moonstone was a Porsche Family color for several years,--restricted to the Porsche family cars ONLY.
A friend of mine purchased a used 928 in that color from a family member. Later that year I saw the same color on a 924 on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills!

And nowadays you can get Moonstone for BMW's as Individual order. Quite striking color for a big sedan, it would be interesting to see a 997 with that color.

Straying away from the 997 now, but in the interests of keeping all these pictures in one place: a blue Cayman:
What colour blue is that???
That Cayman S is the same as my 997S--Blue Turquoise. 34A, a 1996-7 993 and Boxster color.

Looks like Zenith blue to me...
+1
Zenith blue is very sensitive to lighting conditions. Sometimes it looks like a plain blue much closer to cobalt blue than iris blue, sometimes like purple blue. See the 993 pictures in my gallery.

I really ought to be studying the Weighted Average Cost of Capital, you know... never mind.
Here's a bash at Gulf Blue on a GT3. Although as DanL said - I doubt they'll do it.
You could always buy a white one and have race car 'sponsor' coating applied (?)
Dan - I don't suppose you have the Porsche 'Verbotten' list to share with us ?
I really like gulf blue for GT3, but haven't seen one in real pic.
Why Porsche refuse to paint that for GT3?
