It would be great to see another picture of the car taken in daylight/sunlight to see the colors pop and the true contrast between the chassis and the wheels. In this lighting the GT Silver looks periwinkle blue.

It's an absolutely stunning color combination. The GTS 4.0 I just ordered is also GT Silver, I've always been a huge fan.

Are those the stock rims? I would be very happy if they are as mine is the same colour combination. Enjoy your car.

I’ll have to see what’s entailed to have a local shop do it.
There's also a deep blood red that Singer offers for its calipers that would look fantastic if you wanted to go slightly darker than the interior.

Yes, there’s only one factory wheel option available. He just has the platinum color option, as well, which includes the colored crest on the center caps.

I thought the stock wheels on the Spyder are Silver and that Platinum--as on Underblu's car--Black and Aurum are extra cost options?

God bless,

Yep! Didn’t mean to cause confusion, I thought it was implied. This wheel design is exclusive to the GT4/Spyder and it’s the only option right now. But of course a bit more money is needed to paint them a different color. It was generous of Porsche to include the colored crests with the colored wheel options. Actually, it’s a very minor detail, but I wish they could somehow fit “Spyder” onto the center cap or just allow “GT4” on the center caps because the Spyder is a GT4 without a roof.

Sorry I misunderstood you, Gatch. I, too, would like Spyder in the center caps. I suppose one can always buy GT4 center caps and install them after receiving the car. A bit of a waste, though. But I do like the Spyder name.

Underblu, wondering if there is any reflection in the windshield from the Bordeaux Red dash?

I made Underblu’s photos less “blu”. Gorgeous car!

it’s a little paint correction for my photos. Nothing wrong with that. Lol

GT Silver color is actually a warm Silver but it is very changeable depending on lighting. The photos I posted above accurately captured the blueish hue that was happening in that light. These photos captures the car in different light and is more reflective of the actual color.
