Ask this of us UK members and most would barf at the thought of a white 987 - white really isn't a popular colour here. But, I've seen the 986 in white with full black leather interior and it looked stunning - if white wasn't such a major depreciator in the UK it's definitely a colour I would have considered.

I know white is a hell of a lot more popular over there in the good ol' USofA - so I'd say go for it.

Is it approaching Boxster weather in Illinois yet, I lived out there for a time last year (Schaumburg) and still haven't got over how cold it gets around now - hopefully it has warmed a little in time for my next trip in a couple of weeks.
