    997 Turbo Atlas Grey

    Going with my boss either tomorrow or Monday to pick up his 997 Turbo, Atlas Grey w/ Two-Tone Sand and black interior, anyone have one in Atlas Grey yet? I'd like to see some pics if anyone happens to have any. BTW, I'd just like to add that this is the best sports car forum I've yet to come across. $.02

    Re: 997 Turbo Atlas Grey

    here are a couple of another 'only 997S' but atlas grey/natural grey interior





    depending on lighting it will look different as can be seen in the last 2 pictures, one with sun, one with cloud.

    Re: 997 Turbo Atlas Grey

    you're lucky, just shot these one hour ago at my dealer.




    the salesman told me that at night the colour go's from grey to dark grey/black, and in the sun it kind of grey blue..
    Colour looked super nice on this car, and the contrast with
    the rims was terrific! If I had to choose a colour fot the 997tt it would be atlas, definitely.

    Very nice , thanks For some reason the wheels look better in this shot . The new front end almost make the regular 997 seem little dated the more I look at it .

    Re: 997 Turbo Atlas Grey

    Thank you Flyer, that's just what I was looking for, I can't wait to see it in person. It seems to look a little like Black Opal from Mercredes, I may be wrong.

    Re: 997 Turbo Atlas Grey

    Just be carefull as they have photoradar all over the place in Scottsdale, on the loop 101 especially, every 2 miles for a stretch, and at many intersections on the main streets. The sad part is that the 'radar' are ground sensors, so no radar detector will save you, and once you see a flash, it is too late. The only hope is getting a liscence plate defuser (kind of like a polarizor, where from angles greater than 30 degrees the plate is not legible, but alas they are illegal and they will pull you over for it. The rest of Phoenix should be OK, and you can drive in the carpool lane, just not during traffic hours, so at 5 am you should be OK.

    I was wondering exactly the same Sometimes NBL looks peanut butter-like, sometimes more like tan leather.

    I think Atlas is the nicest colour I have seen on the 997 Turbo.
