Default Non-Porsche Color 996T Thread

Outside of Porsche colors, what are some cool colors you have seen 996s in?

Are there any you wish you could paint your 996 in?

I'd like to paint mine in the same colour as the B2 bombers radar absorbing paint, paint is pretty spendy though...

Has anybody seen this Champagne Mirage Metallic Turbo? The color looks awesome with the aerokit but the interior is horrendous.

I bet that one was close to $160,000 new. Crazy options.

Maybe the original owner was a 49ers fan. Lol

Although this is a wrap, it looks great. I bought it like this.

Cobb Stage 3 Tune, GT2 suspension upgrade

Back in 2015, when I was in the market, there was a car I was very interested in that had been repainted from silver to "Atlantis Blue", a BMW color. It looked great in pictures over a black interior with some interior trim bits painted to match the exterior. The only reason I didn't buy it was because the owner was out of the country at the time and his brother was handling (very poorly) the sale of the car. My current car popped up on the market, so I pulled the trigger on it. I always wondered what happened to that Atlantis Blue car, though.
