Re: Cobalt Blue Shots

Yep stunning colour but it just does not look right to me,it just does not suit a Porsche 997s in my opinion

Re: Cobalt Blue Shots

I agree, it looks good on an M3 but just doesnt do it for a Porsche... Needs to be a darker blue in my opinion.

Re: Cobalt Blue Shots

I saw a cobalt coloured car on the road only yesterday and was pleasantly surprised how good the colour looked. The trouble with pics is they can be very misleading. Cars on the move look totally different

Great color...but

what's a good interior color for Cobalt? i guess a light grey would be nice. Cobalt does a nice job revealing some of the contours more so than a very dark color.

Also, I wonder if Cobalt is one of those colors that might look a bit dated in a few years.

I'm really liking Slate Grey these days with Natural Brown Leather and black deviating carpets.

Re: Great color.

Unlike black, silver,or grey, it is decidedly un-somber.

Im sure it looks even richer in person.

Re: Great color...but

Cobalt is a nice color, but not a $3k color. Just about every other manufacture has this shade or something very close to it.....for little or no extra cost, and some look much better.

Yea, but..... Cobalt will be more rare on a PO, because of the cost and that holds some appeal. Damn to late to change my order

Re: Great color...but

My dealer had a Cobalt blue 997S demo car with a black interior. It's not a colour I would choose as it is very bright. I think it will quickly look dated and agree that it is not worth the extra cost. Each to their own though.

Re: Great color...but

I've realized that if I was going to order a 997 or boxster I would have problems to choose the color
