Satin Aurum works so well with Gentian Blue!

Does anyone know what color this area is? I suspect it is race-tex black. Would seem to clash with a brown interior color.

I think it’s the cognac natural leather, given that the console looks to be the espresso. I saw it in person while specing my car. It’s beautiful but not for me. It’s too orange. I went with black/Luxor beige interior. Now if I can just get to v200.

In my car is it black carpet and black hard plastic. I don't know what color they would be in your combination. Did you do a Google image search?

Curious if anyone with Gentian Blue considered - Steering Wheel with 12 O'Clock Marker in Red and what "Red" is matches to on the color swatches. looks like Guards Red. Cheers, Mike

Love the twilight pics. I just wish the blue looked that dark in the daylight. A real, real dark non-metallic blue would be so fantastic, especially with those Aurum wheels.

And the yellow calipers with the Aurum wheels don't look bad, either. I ordered Aurum with black PCCB's because I thought the yellow on Aurum wouldn't look right but now I'm having second thoughts.

There is a beautiful Gentian Blue 718 Spyder at Porsche Monterey right now. Tempting, but I'm sticking with my build that froze today.

Default Gentian Blue Goodness

Recent photos from shoot shortly after delivery in December. Kline Exhaust is installed as well and working on getting some decent video just trying to get to break in so i can get the full effect. Absolutely love the car and Gentian with yellow accents turned out amazing!!!

Perfect representation of Gentian. This is exactly how mine looks in person.

There is no nicer color for this car. Especially on the GT4. People can say and scream as much as they want, PTS this, Shark Blue that....
But the marriage of Gentian Blue to the GT4 is one of the most perfect man-made things in existence today!

I could not agree with you more! I couldn't bring myself to spend 3k more on color so i spent it on the PCCB and carbon buckets.
So happy i went with Gentian Blue and have not second guessed picking anything else from the day i took delivery lol
