Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

20 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Awesome looking Zanzibar Red 986 i have come across today while skipping over some classifieds. Boxster S, Special one of a kind collector quality. For Sale (2000) on Car And Classic UK [C602070] So i searched the color on here and found this fine example. http://986forum.com/forums/general-discussions/48804-first-porsche.html I love this color. What does everyone think, love it or hate it?

POST 2Original post

**LOVE** Would trade mine right now, but I have a "red car" issue. 3 others in my garage...

POST 4Original post

Saw a Boxster that color at local Porsche dealership couple years ago, had a "sold" sign on it. A photo doesn't do it justice. The color just pops, almost surreal, gotta see it in person.

POST 5Original post

After reading the sellers description - I'm simply Not Worthy

POST 6Original post

You asked for opinions....so....not my favorite at all. Maybe it's my eyes, but it has a distinct orange tint to it. Nope, not for me.

POST 7Original post

that is a great color. One of the best. The only thing that would make that color pop better than it does is if it had a sand beige interior.

My mechanic calls it "tomato soup" red

POST 9Original post

there is a nice boxster S for sale near me . I think this is a great car for the price . Full leather, sports seats , PSE , Bose and 32K on it . 2002 Porsche Boster S

POST 11Original post

When ordering the Boxster Zanzibar Red was my first choice. It is much more orange than red. My wife's choice was Guards Red. Oh well.....

POST 12Original post

The car in the first post above: http://986forum.com/forums/general-discussions/48804-first-porsche.html was on eBay a few weeks ago: Porsche Boxster Roadster s Convertible 2 Door | eBay It's a pretty good looking little beasty sporting a set of Fred's headlights!

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I wonder if it was picked up by another forum member?!? The headlights really look good, a very clean look. nice

POST 14Original post

Gawd, that color just screams mid-life crisis.

Some would say the same about a 2 seat convertible sports car. How does color say that? Quit posting while drunk.

POST 16Original post

And here we have yet another stupid irrelevant post by tonichristi. You going for the record there pal? Or you could shock us all and make your first useful post.

POST 17Original post

Quotes source post: 444556

And your post had some relevance? Pot calling the kettle black. Work out your anger issues.

POST 18Original post

As the OP was requesting opinions on this color, my post was completely relevant. It would seem that you are the one with anger issues, judging by all the rude and inappropriate posts you have made so far in this forum. (Still bitter about the big kids taking your lunch money?) You serve absolutely no purpose here and I am sure that I am not the only member wishing you would take your bad attitude and your trash talk somewhere else. The original wording of tonichristie's post, from my email notification, prior to him editing it: "And this had some relevance, jackhole?" I have reported the post to the admin, noting that he has made no posts of value and posts solely to criticize and berate other members. He has been called out about this before by other members and has made no effort to change his unacceptable behavior. On this basis I have asked that he be removed from the member list. I would encourage anyone else of the same mind to also drop a line to the admin about it.
