    Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    between this or Atlas Gray. Thanks. jim

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    Here you are!...a 987S in arctic-silver...
    That`s my choice for my new one.
    My advive to you : don`t take atlas-grey - it looks too
    "dead" . From my point of view dark colours are killing the
    shape of a car. Take artic-silver.
    See ya..TED

    Check my car here: http://www.rennteam.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=71940&an=0&page=0#71940

    The light might be a bit hard, but hopefully you can see it.
    Arctic silver is greyish silver, where other silvers tend to be blueish silver.
    Arctic silver is a very beautiful color, but if I were you I'd give the altkas grey some serious thought, since there are SO many Boxsters out there in silver.

    Let us know what you decide

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    Thanks Teddy and DrPhil. Anyone else? Looks like it'll be Arctic Silver (probably). Jim

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    Thank you very much Rich. Arctic Silver wins over Atlas Gray. Back to the dealer I go to change the colour. P.S. Any more pix Stevie? Jim

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    All this makes me a little happier. My 987 is arctic / blue / blue and having seen the dealers car in midnight blue / blue roof / sand beige I wished I had ordered either midnight blue or lapis. But it was too late to change as my car is Feb production. Allegedly.

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    don t go for the lapis blue, it gets dull after a while

    Thanks - my dealer has told me that lapis is a very soft paint and marks / gets stone chips much easier than any other colour. Midnight blue is very dark, and while it looks glorious when brand new I suspect keeping it that way may be difficult. So arctic silver by default.

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    I did see a midnight blue in the showroom, and the paint finish looked a little 'orange peely' which put me off a little, I agree.

    I've gone for Seal and matched it with Sand leather. I hope it doesn't clash too badly! What does everyone else think? I think they look great individually, but together? Haven't seen an example - don't suppose anyone's got any pics?

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    I am sure on the 997 board there are some pictures of seal grey / sand beige. Look on the earlier posts, when the 997 first came out.

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    Wtsnet: Seal and sand is absolutely stunning! Good call!

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    Hi,jpaiva, this is my current 986 in arcticsilver/graffitigrey.
    It was taken on my 2003 vacation-ride with that car
    on Germanys #1 hot-spot-location (one of my favorite
    places to spend my free-time, next to my Florida-home).
    It's not far away from Dr.Phils home....Greets to Dr.Phil.
    My new 987 (in arcticsilver, as well) is comin at the end of
    next week to my dealer.

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    And greets to you too...if it's my home you mean
    (I believe the other, less known Dr. Phil lives in California now...

    Looks like the dunes of Denmark's west coast.
    Is it close to the Danish border?

    Re: Anyone have pix of 987S in Arctic Silver? Trying to decide

    ..the shot was taken on the german-island Sylt...TED
