Also...if you go to the watch page on th end you can scroll and see the different colors available for the rear of the watch...that should give you a hint of the different wheel combos.
There's one with a Yellow outline so guess Yellow will be one of the main launch colors.

BTW....in the area to choose the back of the watch you clearly see the two wheel designs, regular 4RS and 4RS + WP.......WP has less color options for wheels

I am betting this is arctic grey from the Cayenne Turbo GT. It could be graphite blue but a new color they are already using seems to be more in line with their strategy.

Interesting. I've heard that color called concrete as a nick name because cars in that color just didn't sell and they sat on the show room floor like.....concrete.

Could it be possible that the wheels are 21" because the side walls look thinner than on the GT4?

Blue is Indigo Blue.
Yellow is Racing Yellow.

It's right there on the site! (If you can speak Denglisch)

Note there are two wheel designs...the ones you posted are specific to the WP. The other wheel is exactly the same that we have seen on some prototypes......but both are CL.

I have friends with both Chalk and Graphite Blue 911's... The marketing image is definitely too dark for Chalk and looks to me to light for Graphite Blue. Haven't seen Arctic Grey in person, sounds like a good possibility...

I'd be thrilled with this as a launch color, as i'm a grey car kind of guy!




Graphite Blue


Chalk


Clearly not Slate Grey (GT3T PTS) or Agate Grey (TTS, mine) either....




Not exactly Arctic Grey either, but you never know with color correction on web images...

Arctic Grey Cayenne

I saw that... Same color selection for both, on the watches at least!

Standard wheel?


WP wheel?


This sure does point to "RacingGelb" (Racing Yellow) as the likely launch yellow... Oh well, that will make some folks happy.
