You mind sharing your build sheet, looks great.

Did you get the standard or lightened version? No risk of plate scratching bumper when it is in place? Just want to make sure it clears the more aggressive bumper of GT4/ spyder.

I am looking at the quick release option. I might just leave the white square on the car. Should not be too obvious on a GT silver.

How is the enforcement in Ontario? Do you sometimes ‘forget’ to put the plate on after washing the car?

Waiting for pics of GT Silver Spyder with CXX (Ascot, Natural, Espresso,...) brown leather, silver wheels. That would be an epic combo.

I know it’s probably the most boring combination, but it’s still stunning in person. Proud owner of a new 718 GT4. Bucket list car that is out of my league. Very happy.

Very beautiful! That's going to be my exterior configuration, too, with the addition of PCCB in my case, so I'm happy to see it looks so great!

God bless,

Thank you. With so many beautiful combinations I second guessed my build a thousand times. But happy with the decision. Porsche silver is just something special.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely stunning! This is what my build looks like and should be here in a month. GT Silver with silver wheels is a rare bird indeed. I've only seen a couple so far but everyone takes my breath away. Congratulations on a gorgeous car! Mine really needs to hurry up and get here.

Not boring at all!! GT Silver is one of my all-time favorites. As the GT4 and Spyder are so beautifully designed (from any angle) this color suits them so well. Sure there are other colors that make it pop but I prefer the more classic look - let the design speak for itself. I can see myself getting bored with colors like MB and RY.

GT Silver Pros:
  • Launch color for Porsche's first super car the Carrera GT
  • The most beautiful of all Porsche's silvers (Subjective)
  • Easy color to maintain, works well to PPF, etc.
  • Neutral enough to go well with red, yellow, silver, platinum, and black
  • Previously classified as a special color, not the case with the 718.

GT Silver Cons:
  • Non enough flash (subjective)
  • Metallic - we're in a world where non metallic paints are gaining popularity.
