Having only seen it in pictures, I wasn't sure how I felt about Shark Blue. But went to my dealer today and they had a gorgeous 911 Turbo in the showroom waiting for a transporter to deliver it to a customer. For some reason, it looks different in person to me. Absolutely beautiful color. I'm still happy with my choice of Gentian, but just wanted to say to all of you that have Shark: I get it.

Very true. It is hard to appreciate until you see it in person. Also there is no flop to the color. It looks the same in just about every light.

See, now I think it looks totally different depending on the light.

It is nothing like Gentian Blue or Chalk. Those two colors are completely different in differing light.

I think those all look pretty much the same except the fourth picture....and that looks like an editing issue.

Damn you people.

I was set on GB but these Shark pictures have me thinking about changing my build to this:http://www.porsche-code.com/PN39BGL8

Very similar to mine. I got the sofas though. I also got all the dials in yellow. You may be concerned about everything being too yellow(I was), but it isn't. Looks perfectly awesome.

I don't like the way the warning lights look as they are always visible in yellow, are they not?
