Wow, that's gorgeous! I think it looks nicer than the flat orange I've seen on some other cars

Looks awesome! Definitely a look-at-me color but also classy.

I'm sure it will be the colour of choice in places like Dubai, Moscow, Las Vegas and all capitols of the BLING BLING. I only hope that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.

Looks like a Nissan color. Not my cup of tea.

I'd like to see a few more pics... anyone have more?
I've seen the other 3 shots of this car, but would love to see a good side profile shot

I agree, looks great. Don't know if it would look great from the rear, but I'm sure if you slapped some sport taillights on it, it would look fantastic. Was this the color only available to the Targa series?

It was the colour used for the targa promotion - but Porsche will allow you any colour you want - you just pay the $'s.

Re: Nordic Gold Metallic
Now that it's an available Special Color, any new '09 Cayman owners with this color?
I really would like to see this color in person. As I've mentioned in other posts...not much color variety in my area and at my local dealer.
I think the Nordic Gold might look even better with the new taillights in the '09s.

Re: Nordic Gold Metallic
A bit bright for my taste, but I like the color more than I thought I would. Good to see some color with all the black, white or shades of grey/silver out there.

Re: Nordic Gold Metallic
I like this color after seeing it in person. Moreso than the other metallics it really seems to change color in depending on the lighting.

Re: Nordic Gold Metallic
Sorry to go off topic, but while we are looking at the archives, my favorite is Blue Turquoise. I would love to know who owns this car. If close I would love to meet up.

There's a Nordic Gold boxster on ebay right now.
Yech!

Re: Nordic Gold Metallic
This is my new car. 2.9 Nordic Gold, 19 Turbo Wheels, Bose, Leather, Climate, Tracker...
I absolutely love the colour, they could have got it so wrong, but it's just the right shade to stop it from being OTT.
What do you think?
