Picking paint colors is the hardest decision. The copper-brown metallic is a gorgeous color. I really like your idea with the browns on your car. Think it will look stunning when done.

Thanks Doug. I agree, paint colors and wheel choice are both tough for me, with paint color being the hardest.

Don't laugh, Mazda has a color called Melting Copper on the CX70 or 90. I saw this last weekend. It's stunning. It may be too copper for you though.
I think the last two Porsche colors you selected look great. I'll keep an eye out. The Porsche dealer is less than two miles from my house.

That’s been my dilemma with a lot of the browns, bronzes, copppers… in a certain light they are amazing, but in regular day to day they lose the pop.
I think that’s where all the effort in the bodywork makes a difference.

Porsche Chesnut Brown Metallic
FWIW I love the Porsche Chestnut brown metallic!
Especially if you went with some black centered wheels like in the picture...
