Question Poll: What exterior color are you selecting?

For those that are ordering, what color have you specced your GT4 / Spyder?

Guards Red if PTS doesn't open up.

I am really struggling with this lol. I just want lava orange but it isn’t an option. Chalk was my backup but after looking at some 718 GTS’s in chalk I think I’m changing my mind again. :/

I may just end up with Carrara White Metallic

No PTS so black - I have paid too much for PTS in my life already

I'm so torn on that… Was looking at Chalk first, but the 4K $ CAD is hard to swallow...

Will probably be between CWM and GR.

GTSM, CWM or there's still a chance for GB.
Thankfully I don't have to decide for some months .... I think.

I am likely going with plain white. I prefer solid colors.

I initially wanted Miami blue but white is free

GT Silver.

Slightly worried that it may be a bit underwhelming in an ocean of grey cars but am told that this is THE grey. Not brave enough for red or yellow. Might add a couple side stickers to spice things up if I can find something tasteful.

I went back and forth and back and forth on chalk, gentian blue, guards red, and racing yellow, but ultimately decided if I can't have Arena Red, I'm getting a classic Porsche color, which means Guards. Especially since the stitching will then match.

Really like the look of gentian blue on some web images, but not on some others. Will have to see it in person. Otherwire yellow or GT silver are next best choice.

Pure white, though Gentian is VERY tempting...will have to see what it looks like in person.

Agree, it looks very dark and metallic in some, but lighter in others. Tough to tell!

Default Really tough one.....

I wish they offered the agate grey-- that would be my choice.

My shelby GT350 is performance blue, and as much as I LOVE blue, I don't think the spyder will look as good in miami blue as the cayman will. The gentian blue looks amazing in the build, but in pics I've seen, it has a purplish tint to it in certain lights, almost like Lapis blue -- which I don't like.
If the gentian blue was a true navy metallic blue, it would be tough to say no to.

I think the spyder was meant to come in black, but I'm a bit scared to get a black car living in the desert (when I move).

I'm thinking carrera white metallic with black wheels, black calipers, and black door handles.
I'm not sure if the spyder interior would fit with this (too feminine with the white extrerior?) or the black with silver stitching interior instead.

In general, I think the lines/humps on the spyder will stand out more so with metallic paint colors than the flat colors.

Right now thinking GT Silver, but I've been all over the place. Chalk, White, Gentian, Miami have all been options.
