Yesterday we showed you the world’s golden Porsche 918. A few days before that we saw an orange 918. Now check out the first Baby Blue Porsche 918. If they keep going like this, soon M&Ms is going to sue Porsche for ripping them off!
Joking aside, the baby blue Porsche 918 Spyder looks absolutely amazing. There is a certain charm to this color that just works, regardless of the car it is applied to. This light shade of blue also does a good job of showing off the 918’s unique lines and design details in a way the usual colors – black, grey and white – can’t. It also makes all the carbon fiber aero parts pop and increases their visual impact.
