    A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    I've had the car about a week now, and just had it properly detailed....I'm very happy with the way the car drives, and the fit and finish is excellant...What I'm not happy with are the electronics. 1 week of ownership (200 miles) and 3 visits to the dealer already with the "system fault, return to workshop" issue...I've had the solenoids replaced, but still have the problem. It's really putting a dampner on how I feel about the car...which is a shame because it's a thrilling drive!!

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    cool pictures!!! That midnight blue is pretty sharp

    good luck with the electronic "gremlins"

    (my dads 997s has a rear brake light that doesnt illuminate most of the time, its still a great car, taking to the dealer to get it fixed soon!)

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Wow, Awsome color & Congratulation. Enjoy your new car. They will fix the problem.

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Very nice pictures indeed.. I like the colour combo.. Keep it nice and clean.. and of course ENJOY ecery second in it!

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Very nice car congrats, love the color

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    smokin!!!!!!! so glad i did the blue -- also with the sand beige. Should be arriving within the next week. Cab though.

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    very nice

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Great pics!! and congratulations on the car. Hope it stays clean for you for a while, and the issues are sorted out soon. Did you use a filter for the "star cross" effect?

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Very classy, did you take full leather (incl. the dash)?

    Believe it or not, I didn't use a star filter....the car really is that shiny BLING

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Jfraser, congrats great choice of colour. I've ordered my 997S in Mid Night Blue but gone for full Black Leather. Great pics these are the first 997S pics Ive seen in my choice of colour. Thanks for posting them.

    I wasn't a big fan of the old savannah biege interior, it was too mustard coloured for me, but I'm very happy with the new sand beige. I've always loved Porsche midnight blue...Hope your car arrives soon

    Send me a pm with your email address, and i'll email a couple high res pics...Having to resize the pics for thread posting takes some of the color info/clarity out of the image.

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    nice!!!

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Superb, absolutely breathtaking. Of course since this is the same color Im ordering Im a little biased. Enjoy your masterpiece on four wheels!

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Doesn't the sun do wonders for dark colors? Great pics. Thanks and enjoy!

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    jfraser: Did you have electronic problems at all BEFORE you had the car detailed, assuming that was the first time the car was washed?

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Balloonmeister
    The car was delivered with the system fault!!!!...Purchased in Penn, trucked to me in LA (closed sided vehicle)....I think the car was washed before it was sent...hence on arrival system fault....Had the 'rectification' work done...solenoids etc. car was fine for about 3 days...then reappeared...sytem was reset...had the car detailed...picked it up....system fault!!! Waiting for a response from Germany at the moment. Apparently this is unusual, as changing the solenoids normally fixes the problem.

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Congrats. I must commend you on your choice of color!

    Good luck with the Gremlins.

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Also from me: Congratulations!

    It's my favourite colour. I would prefer grey, black or sea blue interiour.

    Greetings over the "little pond"!

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    Its like a dream looking at that car, love it.

    Hope all works out with the eltro glitches.

    Re: A couple of Midnight Blue 997S Pics

    I am starting to like 'colors' more and more!!! Before I liked only grey or black. Now I find speed yellow great. And your blue is beautifull
    Great choice
