Nice car. Looks white to me too. But I don't have one of those fancy schmancy color correcting and enhancing software packages that some of you computer geeks have.
There's only one beige Cobra on this site that I know of and it's not the car above.

The spectrum of "beige," like the spectrum of psychiatric "normalcy" of the members on this board, is quite wide. So wide, in fact, that most people would view the poles as being "off the charts," whether they are talking car color or the mental faculties of the members here.

White Cobras look fantastic. Especially for racing.
Beige, not so much

Ok, not to prove Patrick's point above... but, I ran this topic by my resident Interior Designer, and she informed me that the car in the Craigslist ad I posted above is definitely beige, and that Patrick's car definitely isn't beige....
According to her, Patrick's car is taupe
Now, aesthetically speaking, I'm not sure whether taupe is a more redeeming shade than beige, but then again, I also don't care...
And, don't ask me why I would ask my wife to color-chip two cars on the internet, because the only answer that makes any sense at all is that I am, clearly, an idiot....

Maybe the better technical name for the color of Patrick's Cobra is "Poop." Then the shading of it will really depend on what you had for dinner.
wow, rb. You lost me. You said you don't care, but yet, you show your wife the two pics of the only two beige Cobras in existence? Hmmm.
I always ask myself one question, "Would Carroll Shelby approve?" Uh, no.

My wife drives a 'Serengeti Sand Metallic' Infiniti G35 - the dealer's ad described the colour as 'beige'. SMH

At least it has what used to be described as 'color-keyed wheels'.

Patrick has color-keyed Trigos. He had a thread about repainting his wheels the same color as the body.
