Meteor Grey

Seventy Seven · 15 Apr 2013

So glad I opted for Meteor Grey (sorry all you guys with Black 997s).

I went from years back wanting a silver one (996 days), then Seal Grey, then nothing else but Atlas Grey, then Meteor Grey, then Black and then back to Meteor!!

For clarity, a Black 997 looks awesome when clean, but as with all black cars, quickly and easily starts to look dirty.

The Grey hides light dirt really well

Sorry for going on...... The misses ain't interested as much as you guys are!

Love the enthusiasm, but not as much as my BLACK 997... :thumb:
You're right about the dirt though.

As I said, a clean black 997 is hard to beat.

With the grey, I also like the contrasting black interior and exterior trim. Maybe I'm just fed up of cleaning the wife's BM (black, again)..... Especially now I have mine

I wanted Basalt Black but ended up with Atlas Grey which is a great as its an in between black and grey and I still marvel at the different shades of colour the car can be dependant on light levels.

I've owned my Meteor Turbo for nearly four years now and still think it's the best colour for a 997.

Seal grey for me presently. It looks lovley in the sunlight when the car has been treated to Wet GLaze 2.0. The metallic pop is beautiful.

+1 again.

imo, looks a bit crap on a dull day, ie. all the way from November to March this year!

Isn't there a saying of once you go black you never go back...... :dont know:

Just clay barred mine looked lovely a couple of hours until dust got on to it
