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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Is there much of a difference? Which one is lighter? Thanks in advance!

POST 3Original post

Actually, Lee, No. "Polar" means, among other things, "directly opposite" as in Artic and Antarctic. Artic means "bear" in some Scandahovian language or other. The genus classification is "Thalarctos Maritimus". Thus Polar bears are indigenous to the Artic only. Antarctic meaning "not Arctic" or "no bear", thus, no polar bears ("Thalarctos Maritimus") live in the Antarctic. Santa Clause uses only a special genus of reindeer from the northern regions above Finland. The classification presently escapes me. Reindeer are generally quieter, lighter on their feet, require lfar less food and are easily house broken. They are also able to hover above houses unlike the polar bear. Polar bears have a tendency to be undependable, are somewhat lazy and mainly eat the fresh meat of seals and are especially fond of ripping the meat off the belly of seal pups. Further, they lack the aerodynamic lift that reindeer possess. And, Oh, by the way, Santa's sleigh is neither Arctic Silver or Polar Silver it is Guards Red as is the nose of the lead reindeer. I never inhaled.

Go here http://www.whiteson.org/boxster/gallery/ and pick polar silver in the top box. Several pictures will show up and as Holger said, polar has a slight blue hue. -Scott

I needed a good laugh. It's been a long day. Gnome '01 C2

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the serious replies. The boxter page was a huge help with pics of Arctic cars next to the Polar cars. There is a big difference. Thanks again!

POST 11Original post

As previously pointed out. Polar has some blue in it. Arctic actually has some brown in it, and GT silver is "pure" silver.

POST 12Original post

GT silver has a lot more brown in it than Arctic silver.

POST 13Original post

Thanks for the laugh, JimPDX. Had me rolling for a while.

POST 14Original post

Just saw a polar silver C4S cab yesterday and it looked beautiful! You can definitely tell the difference, the blue hue is noticable in the light.
