Great color. Needs a lighter interior -- Natural Braun would look great!

Honestly it’s just the way to make a special car more fun. So kudos to all of these owners who choose these fun colors.

Have you guys played with this site? You can adjust the color wheel for tone and brightness and it matches pts colors to the tone you pick. I've been browsing greens blues, purples and dark, dark reds for the last hour+

Wow that is crazy, I can’t Imagine how long it took to build that website.

Do you think someone manually did the matching or is it as simple as loading hundreds of pictures and a computer matches it ?

Not a horrible spec for a manual, base 997.2.

That still seems like a lot of money. But my calibration is way off.

Is it the DI engine since it is a 2011?

As aforementioned that is now the norm for a manual 997.2 coupe. A 997.2 manual C2S coupe is $75-90k+ depending on mileage/condition.

Yes, the 9A1 launched in the 997.2 beginning in July/August 2008 for MY2009-2012 production.
