Default Cream White...

Was wondering if anyone here has a cream white 997.2. Though I've never seen a 911 in this color in person, photos posted online to me look stunning, particularly contrasted against a brown interior. This color combo, coupe, manual transmission, very well may be my unicorn quest.

One of the guys in the 997 turbo forum bought one recently. I thought it looked great, although I think he had it wrapped in another color.

Cream White has a pinkish tint in some lighting conditions, which could be why it was only offered for a couple of years, IIRC. It is not a color I could live with for very long.

I recently purchased a very low mileage 09 C2S coupe with manual transmission.
It is cream white with natural brown leather, sport seats, etc.
Changed the standard 19" wheels for a new set of Carrera Sport Wheels.
I can't see any pink in this paint color.
Probably overpaid but do love it.

I've seen one in real life, cab though. Pictures do not do it justice. Gorgeous!! If I find one at a reasonable price in the spec I want, I'm selling the wife's Benz without telling her and buying it. If you do find one, please post pics, so I can be as jealous as heck!

What is the color name? I had a 911SC in Chiffon white, with saddle interior. I did a whole C2 body kit and updated the interior to cashmere leather from a totaled C2. Heresy, I know....it was my first 911. I found her on Renlist a year ago. She is a track girl now.

Ive owned more than a few white 911's, but I have a soft spot for the cream white.

I think a really nice Cab build would be the cream with navy top and carpets with natural leather. The door cards and dash would be two tone, navy on top and natural below.

I have a cream white c4s cab with the cocoa brown top and interior.
Love that you don't see too many of those on the road.

Very nice. If it were only a manual transmission, I'd be contacting you regarding yours for sale. Alas...

Cream white is the best color! Waited months to find mine in Cream White over natural brown.

Especially love all of the cream white body color trim on the interior contrasting with the natural brown interior.

I also feel that this a very vintage/classic color combination, and especially like it with the Carrera Sport wheel.


Laurence, did you get the one at Livermore, CA?
I saw that car and really liked it, but already had mine
