Regular old cheap no-charge white. Never would have spec'ed that on the configurator but when I saw it IRL I thought it looked fantastic on the GT3 form. Underrated color for sure.

I call it GT White because it makes me feel better than calling my car basic white

My last car was a white 981 Cayman S, with full mirrors painted, side air intakes painted and rear diffuser painted white, with 2 tone full leather interior - Agate Gray upper with the light gray/white seats and lower. It was stunning in person, and pretty much everyone that saw it always commented on how attractive it was. I liked how it gave the illusion of being clean, even when dirty - up to a point. However, I'm now on to my new GT Silver with red top and red/black classic interior. That's going to be an entirely new experience....

Well, I don’t own it any more but I never shared a photo of my white Cayman. It had the 2.7 liter engine with a manual, and the engine sounded glorious when pushing it. I loved it in white. I realize that this is a 4.0 thread, but this design isn’t far off from a GT4 in the front and I must say that 2.7 had a great exhaust note, too.

PS - at a swimming hole on Loyalsock Creek near Barbours, PA.

The non metallic white is a gorgeous color. It glows under the sun. I agree that many people dismiss it when configuring their car, but they wouldn’t if they saw it in person. It pairs amazingly well with yellow deviated stitching and yellow calipers like Jeff’s car..

Nice but let's see some pics of that rubber interior you're so happy with! Been considering ordering it myself.

Flat White? You mean like a wrap?

Only aware of a metallic and non-metallic white; neither is flat.

The dark brushed aluminum really ties the interior together nicely along with the deviated stitching which looks so classy. BTW, how do you find the seats? Some say they are cool in the Summer but some otherwise. BTW, do you know what % the tinted glass is? Any issue with night driving? Enjoy!
