I agree, as I have similar feelings with my Dark Blue Metallic 981 Cayman GTS. In good lighting or obviously sunshine, it’s a stellar shade of deep blue with hints of purple. But in poor or flat lighting, it can look closer to black. Which is why I think we’re all hoping Shark Blue will be significantly lighter than Gentian Blue and way less turquoise than Miami Blue.

sadly I think Shark Blue will be too late for my build .... I'm now leaning towards Racing Yellow or PTS Arrow Blue

Color really pops in the right lighting.

+1 on that, although I'm a bit biased having a blue E46 as well!

IMO, Arrow is THE best blue Porsche offers. Not even in the same league as RY.
