Porsche has produced 12 distinct beige colors across every generation from the 356 to the 992. This page is the complete index — every factory beige paint code, every PTS beige, with hex values, model availability, and the years each color was offered.
Beige covers warm neutrals: Cashmere Beige Metallic, Macadamia, Sand White, Bahia Beige, and Light Ivory from the air-cooled era. Beiges flatter classic 911 and 928 silhouettes and are increasingly popular on restored cars.
Light Ivory and Bahia Beige were standard on early 911s. The family quieted in the modern era but returned on the Macan and Panamera with Cashmere Beige Metallic, and in PTS with several restored 1970s shades. Beige is now one of the fastest-growing color choices on restomod 911s.
Our database currently tracks 12 beige Porsche paint colors, including 3 that are exclusive to the Paint to Sample (PTS) program. The count grows as we document additional historical and PTS-only shades.
Among beige Porsche colors, the most recognizable depends on the era — early air-cooled cars, the impact-bumper era, the water-cooled generation, and modern PTS commissions each have their own benchmark colors. Browse the full list below to see them ordered by year and model availability.
Yes. 3 of the beige colors in our database are part of the current PTS catalog — meaning they're pre-approved and can be ordered on most current 911, 718, Cayenne, Macan, Panamera, and Taycan models for the standard PTS upcharge. See the PTS-only section below.
Color affects resale on a model-by-model basis. Certain beige colors — especially low-production factory shades and well-chosen PTS commissions on GT cars — can carry significant premiums in the collector market. Volume-era beige colors trade closer to baseline.
Solid finishes use single-stage paint and have a flatter, denser appearance. Metallic finishes contain aluminum flake for depth and shift in changing light. Special finishes — including pearl, chromaflair, and certain PTS specials — use additional pigment layers for more pronounced color shift. Use the finish filter on this page to compare.
