Biarritz White

Biarritz White is a clean, pure white solid — at #F9F7F7 it is an essentially neutral white with the faintest possible warmth, positioned between the clinical purity of a cool white and the obvious cream of ivory. The name references Biarritz, the elegant French Basque coast resort town beloved by European royalty and socialites, giving the color an aristocratic lightness. Biarritz White (Biarritzweiß, code 9A2) was one of the white options offered on the 986-generation Boxster during the transitional 2000–2001 period, sitting between the original Snow White of the 1997–1999 cars and the later Carrara White that defined the post-facelift 986. With four documented community examples it occupies modest rarity status — a transitional white significant primarily to Boxster historians documenting the color evolution across the 986 generation.
