2027 Porsche 718 Boxster Colors Guide – The 2027 Porsche 718 Boxster marks the arrival of the next-generation mid-engine roadster, confirmed by Porsche CEO Michael Leiters as entering production in 2027 (with customer deliveries expected later that year). This all-electric successor to the current 718 lineup has not yet received an official reveal or full options list as of mid-August 2026. Official exterior and interior color options for the 2027 model remain unannounced.
Porsche typically carries forward popular solid, metallic, and special colors while introducing new ones and expanding the Paint to Sample (PTS) and Paint to Sample Plus programs. Buyers in the USA can expect a broad palette similar to recent 718 models, with strong emphasis on customization. Below is a guide based on the final years of the current-generation 718 Boxster (through 2025, with production concluded) and related models such as the 718 Spyder RS, drawing from trusted sources including Porsche configurators, dealer information, and automotive data providers.
Expected Exterior Color Options for the 2027 Porsche 718 Boxster
Recent 718 Boxster and related models offered a mix of standard solid colors, metallic finishes, special colors, and extensive custom options. Popular choices that are likely to influence or return for 2027 include:
- Solid/Standard colors: White, Black, Guards Red, Racing Yellow
- Metallic colors: Agate Grey Metallic, GT Silver Metallic, Gentian Blue Metallic, Jet Black Metallic, Ice Grey Metallic, Vanadium Grey Metallic (a relatively newer grey with silver flake, first highlighted on the Spyder RS and later expanded)
- Special/Other colors: Arctic Grey, Aventurine Green Metallic, Carmine Red, Chalk, Ruby Star Neo, Shark Blue
Convertible soft tops have typically been available in Black (standard), with options for Blue, Brown, or Red.
Porsche’s Paint to Sample program provides access to over 100 approved colors (including historic Porsche shades), while Paint to Sample Plus allows near-unlimited custom matches. These programs are expected to continue and potentially expand for the electric 718, consistent with offerings on the 911 and other models.
Pricing for metallic and special colors on recent models typically ranged from several hundred to a few thousand dollars (e.g., special colors around $2,680 in the US configurator for 2025 examples), with PTS adding more. Exact 2027 pricing and availability will be confirmed closer to launch.
Interior Color and Material Options
Interior choices on recent 718 models emphasized black as the standard, with leather packages, Race-Tex, and two-tone combinations. Common options included:
- Black (standard or with contrast stitching)
- Bordeaux Red, Carmine Red, Graphite Blue, Chalk accents
- Combinations such as Black/Bordeaux Red or Black/Chalk
- Additional materials and colors via leather packages and Exclusive Manufaktur
Expect similar flexibility for the 2027 electric model, with potential new pairings suited to the EV design language (influenced by the Taycan and 911).
How Colors May Evolve for the Electric 2027 Model?
Prototypes spotted testing suggest the new 718 Boxster will evolve the current design rather than radically change it, so many proven colors should remain relevant. New shades often debut on performance variants (as Vanadium Grey Metallic did on the Spyder RS) before expanding. Porsche has continued updating PTS offerings across the lineup (including returns of favorites like Miami Blue and Python Green on other 2027 models such as the 911).
US buyers should check the official Porsche configurator (once available for the new model) or contact a Porsche Center for the latest details, as options can vary by market and trim. Remaining current-generation inventory may still be available through dealers while the transition occurs.
Choosing the Right Color for Your 2027 718 Boxster
Classic choices like Guards Red, White, or Black deliver timeless Porsche appeal and strong resale. Vibrant options such as Ruby Star Neo, Shark Blue, or Racing Yellow stand out for open-top driving. Metallic greys (Agate, Vanadium, GT Silver) offer modern sophistication that pairs well with the electric powertrain’s clean aesthetic. Always view colors in person when possible, as lighting and finishes (especially metallics) change appearance significantly.
For the most current information as the 2027 model approaches reveal and production, refer to Porsche’s official US newsroom, configurator, and authorized dealers. The combination of a broad standard palette and industry-leading customization means the 2027 718 Boxster should continue Porsche’s tradition of highly personalizable sports cars.
