Guessing amethyst ( ? ) in case the light of day and how it reflects in that photo makes the color appear to be a much lighter / brighter shade ? Or is the color fairly true to life , and Porsche has a creative name for that shade ? Until we hear the official word , I'll call it " summer amazonian lilac ". :-) :-)
