Views on Speed Yellow for a 991?
Discussion
Yes, sorry the one I am looking at is Racing Yellow. I had a Speed Yellow 996 Turbo back in the day and got mixed up. I liked the colour on it but got lots of hostile looks.
I've always been quite unfussed about the colour of my cars but yellow does seem to inflame some people on the street. I had a yellow NSX which seemed to be a magnet for idiots. Both of these more than 20 years ago though. Even more confusingly my wife loves yellow, hates red, hates white, hates viper green, loves Miami Blue, I would take the right car in any of those except maybe white

Racing was in the 991 as a standard colour, so more likely to find that to be what’s in cars rather than speed. Expect this is an error on advertisers as much as anything.
Racing was lighter but brighter than speed. Had it on my 991.1GTS, carried it off really well, but a bit marmite for many.
If you want bright it ticks the box & does get a lot of attention. When I traded in the sale was done in days few, see the car about near me occasionally still. Does look good.

I love bright coloured Porsches! I call them "Smarties" like the chocolate sweets.
But... I don't welcome the attention they get. Be it from the Police or "numbnuts".

Wow, absolute heaven there! What a collection.
Look at the quality of that car ... look at the drivers seat and compare it to a similar mileage 996 / Boxster seat ...
The wheels to me look like the Cup 2's that could have been standard when new ... good lightweight wheels and prettier to my eye than the Cup 1's.
Pricey but ? I'd want an inspection of the underside but it looks stunning, but I do have history with yellow cars !
