Probably ordering this week sometime and although I love black I've got a black 996 at the moment and I fancy a colour change.

Obvious choices are grey or silver but I seem to remember seeing a 997 in white and thinking it looked amazing.

Has anyone got any pics of a white 997 that they could post? The Porsche car configurator doesn't exactly give a true representation of the colours and I've trawled the web but to no avail

Thanks

Yep, it does look pretty $hit hot, especially with the 19" carrera classics and the red calipers. Thanks for the link to the pic

My only reservation is how future proof the colour is. I know it looks amazing now but will it still look as fresh in 2 yrs? Probably going to end up keeping this car for a while you see.

Also, the last thing I want to do is to take delivery of a £75k car and realise I've made a mistake on the colour!

I know what your saying but a lot of GT3's are going to be white. You could put the GT3 kit on it? When i get a GT3 im def going white. I think it could look amazing in 2 years time and the dealers are still going to knock you as its not black.

Hmmm, good point.

Should have a few months to think about it after I've put my deposit down though before they require a final spec

Looks well in white in this pic:

its going to look amazing over here all the time the sun shines and its clean.

So..... Clean it first thing, look amazing where ever your first pit stop is then it rains you get in cleaned AGAIN then off you go looking amazing again.

I have to agree that looks very good. The OPC told me that black is the most common colour on order now. (It's the new dark blue apparently)

And it's a tippy too. Lovely car.

Some pics on rennlist.com if you search for white in the 997 section(I cant be bothered to post a link!)The car does look stunning.My car is silver but Im sick of the colour and would definately try a more daring colour next time.White is stunning as long as you keep it clean.

go for it,black is sooooo boring...plus you can see it better through the winter haze,and it,ll look a million dollars when cleaned,no light scratch marks that haunt you every time you look at it,which you will !
