Sorry but not digging it because the red roof isn't even close to the GR hue. It really should have been left as black especially since the tint is so dark.

+1 for silver wheels, -2 for the roof and interior

I love racing yellow, especially in a drop top.

I think the red top looks incredible on Silver, Chalk, White or Black. I just wish it didn't have to be bundled with the red interior. Otherwise, I would have loved to get the red top with bordeaux red, deviated stitching, gauges and belts.

A few shots from an article a few months ago—worth including in this thread. Looks a touch closer to Carmine here, but it’s still Guards at the end of the day.

I had a GR981 Spyder (sold to navarro) and I'm signing for a GR718 Spyder tomorrow. GRed is the best color IMHO. When I went to meet ups all the other Spyder cars were silver and my red car got all the attention. If all goes well I'll post pics in a couple days. I didn't get to order this time, but at least it's GRed, I can live without the LWBs and the Burmester..

If I didn't have a GR 911 I would of have spec a GR GT4. Both GR and RY are bold colors and IMHO that is what a sports car should be.

I had this posted on a different thread, but stumbled across this thread so I thought I would post it here too.
