That's a C2S Chris!!

The color on the Cayman R is called "Peridot Metallic". I think that that's what the color is on this C2S Cab.

Hey porsche.fan do you have any pictures of that Black C2S with the aerokit next to the C2S Cab?

Pretty sure that's Peridot. Probably previewing it before putting it on the Cayman R.

Got an answer from Porsche Exclusive. The 997 was painted in phoenix-yellow (like the BMW M3 color)!

I'm pretty sure I saw that car at a Porsche driving event in Sonoma this summer. According to the Porsche people that were there from Germany, its a factory car made with just about every factory-custom spec option possible to show what it possible if a customer wants to get creative. Every interior and exterior part of the car was a custom color or material, including the paint.

^Yes. I saw this exact car at the Porsche Aerospace Event a few months ago here in SD.

I was talking to the sales mgr for Hoehn Porsche and commented how ugly I thought that car was. He explained it was a factory car done for P exclusive to showcase what they can do. Every possible interior trim piece is painted that color, as well as deviating stitching in the same color too.

I took some pics of it if anybody's interested.

It will be ugly, but yea! Not a big fan of the painted interiors. They should have showcassed their leather exclusive options...

I'd be interested in seeing pics of the interior.
