Several folks have commented over the months that the Cayman looks best in light to medium colors. After staring at the shots of the black one in Frankfurt, I'm not so sure. It looks amazing in the black as well. A nice dark metallic color can show curves as nicely as a light color. The lights really snap off of the black. You can't see the grill detail as well, but that is a trade off. I think this car is going to look good in most Porsche colors.
Still dying to see a Carmon one.
Check out the additional pics I just put up from JackWood of the Exclusive
Cayman S
in Basalt Black, looks good to me!
Pictures never really do justice to the real thing since they can't capture the dimensionality of the subject. After looking at this car for some time now I don't think you can go wrong with a dark or light color. I prefer standard black to the basalt only because basalt seems to have some brown in it that I don't care for. Can't go wrong with seal or atlas either.
I wouldn't kick a dark color out of bed, but I think the lighter colors show the curves more.This is one of the pics that made me think that....
Subtle horizontal character lines tend to get lost in very light colors. I think, that depending on where the light is coming from, the rear flanks of the car will not be as dramatic in white as a darker color.
