You know some poke at white as a porsche color, but with that tan interior and cab it looks really classy. Great color combo. I'm not much for the gray interior as I think it looks plastic.

Thanks guys for the feedback!!!!
I am really happy with the color.. It is funny because I had my Black 996 for about 5 years and never got a single compliment on the color.. With the White I am constantly getting compliments.. It really stands out.. I know its not for everyone.. And when I got my black 996 I hated white.. but It has grown on me a lot lately.. I guess here in Santa Monica/Beverly Hills all you see are Black and Grey 911's which contributes to the attention... I had to track a white one down at a remotely located dealer and it was the last one, all the way in Riverside (an hour+ drive).
The PSE was installed with a separate Button, the button is really cool, it has a picture of the exhaust.
The interior is "Sand Beige"
I also have a brown top
B-xenons
Heated seats
19" wheels (chrome)
Sport steering wheel
Bose sound
CD changer and a few other options

get you calipers shot red...
it will make a tremendous accent. I would also add the "S" in red in the rear to match your calipers. It would add a sweet touch of "race" to your classy looking scheme.
Did you do the chrome exchange plan at LA wheel? Thats what I did. Perhaps your wheels were chromed by the dealer by them, they do the most around.
If youve read any responses to my wheels, you'll get a ton of naysayers about your wheels. They are just guys with nothing better to do than badger your wheels as if theyre traditionalists. Like Porsche royalty that look down at anything Porsche didnt think of themselves (but in fact they did on the turbo)....It not even worth responding to, enjoy your car, looks great.

NO red "S" as you will be banished from here for doing so! Ultimate no-no.
Yeah I guess theyre all cutting her slack because...
Shes quiet
Shes new
Shes a she
Theyre all kinda the follower type, kinda waiting for one person then they all jump in like hyenas. Let's hope she gets spared.
Im still looking at your wheels and it seems the red calipers are almost "missing"
perhaps im so used to seeing S's.
