PTS is a joke right now......I could consider +$11K on a GT3 or GT2 but not sure if I want to add that much $$$$ to a GT4/Spyder.
I would love to do my GT4 in Continental Orange or maybe Pastel Orange but at that price I'm having a hard time justifying it....looks like White and Yellow are winning.
Same goes fo CXX custom options...you could easily end up paying GT3 money if you go crazy with these options.

With what's supposed to be a multi-year run - I wonder if they'll have different color options the following year?

Doubtful...we may even get less colors like what happened on 981 GT4!
But lets hope that's not the case.
I wonder why the other 718s get 2 extra special colors than the 718 GT4.

Same thing happened with the 987 and 981... and other special models like the Carrera T and 718 T.
I think it's something they do for the lowers special models.

I’ve been to two different dealers and no one has a Gentian blue sample yet. I was hoping to be able to compare it directly to my ABM in different light situations. Ugh.

I'm not sure on this but isn't this gentian blue a new color?
As an option maybe your dealer can get the color code and you can replicate a small paint batch at your local body shop or auto paint shop.

Saw a Gentian blue 718 Spyder at the Werks Reunion in Monterrey. Pretty.

and a rear shot. In real life the color looks gorgeous in direct sun at specific angles otherwise it just looks like a very dark color that hides the car. I almost walked past it and didn't even notice it if it wasn't for my friend's interest in that old Mercedes next to it that made me mill about until I finally realized "damn that's the new Spyder". These pics make the car look a lot brighter than it really is.

Hopefully I’ll be able to see it and s few other in person before I order. I’m thinking darker colors to help blend in all the black plastic bits.
