best color for gt2, and turbo's: i think is arctic silver....or anything
close to metallic in nature

as for carreras and boxsters: solids look better than metallics

Once again, it depends on era's as well...

In the 1980's there were no green cars. Porsche used chocolate brown as
their standard interior color in the 70's and early 80's. While red is a
great color...all modern Porsches look terrible in it. Yellow is just a
terrible color no matter who wears it.

: each car...i think, has their Own Best color.
:

big, classic Cadillac convertibles look good red with white interior, ditto
Pontiac GTO convertibles, red with black interior.

<Pontiac GTO convertibles>

Ahhh yes, the GTO...I want a '67 done in blue (a darker shade), with the
white interior and top.

It depends a lot in what colour the car was first introduced and what
colours was used on the brochures of the manufacturer. That colour will
stick.

Well, a lot of companies tend to favor the racing color of their
country or the company itself. This is why most British sports cars
are shown in green, German in white (though Mercedes uses silver), and
Italy uses red. Luxury cars are usually presented in silver or black.
But the way the company guides color most is in the cars they give
to the press for road testing. Going by current press coverage, you'd
think the BMW Z4 M Roadster only came in red, and the new Z4 coupe
only in blue.

It is said that in Mercedes' glory days Alf Neubauer liked 'bare metal'
(rather than 'silver'), because it saved a couple of pounds.
