The Official Shark Blue Color Thread

Went down to Porsche San Diego and they have the car awaiting delivery. I spoke to the SA that sold the car and he said the car was actually a dealer build. The customer called and asked if they had an available allocation to which the SA responded to tell the client that they have the car built and en route. If I remember correctly, the client bought it like a month ago. He’s taking delivery this weekend. Flying down from San Francisco and will drive home on the 1.
Shark Blue, PCCB, yellow calipers, yellow stitching, yellow gauges, yellow chrono, 18 way, burmester, 6MT, carbon fiber trim, black wheels, PDLS+ is what I remember.
The color looks FANTASTIC! For those that bought it and love bright blues, this is a great color especially since it’s not PTS money. I’ll admit, it’s a very close second to my Riviera Blue. Yes, I’m biased.
I’ve seen Voodoo Blue in person and Shark Blue is definitely not as saturated as Voodoo Blue. Slightly less. Parking my RB next to the SB made me see how light RB is. When seeing RB on its own, it’s seems a little darker but next to SB, it’s definitely on the very light side of blue. Here are some pictures to help visualize.

Also ordered a set of OEM black/silver inserts for the bucket seats from Garry at Classic FX, which should look sharp against the black, silver and shark blue theme. If shark blue belts become available for configuration, then I will consider in place of silver belts.

A couple YouTubers I follow contacted MaxSpeed MotorSports that replaced their webbing; current color choices are silver, yellow, blue, green, plus two choices of red.

key is "eventually" - once 992 GT3s deliveries start the OEM parts will become available to dealers like Suncoast who aggressively market these "upgrades"...

Shark vs Voodoo...lifted from the 992 GT3 forum.
Enjoy!
Feel sorry for all the PTS Voodoo Blue owners always explaining “No this is Voodoo...not Shark”

I saw that thread. Thanks for reposting here. Assuming the camera/computer are processing the colors accurately, the second picture shows that SB is just a tad lighter than VB but if I saw them IRL, I wouldn't be able to tell them apart unless they were right next to each other. I guess it's kind of like how Miami Blue, Riviera Blue, and Mexico Blue are very similar.

Wow, Shark looks the same as Voodoo on those pics. Only very very slightly lighter. Much smaller diff than the diff between Miami vs Riviera vs Mexico.

Porsche did something similar with Chalk/Crayon right after they unlocked Sport Classic Grey. I ordered PTS SCG before they debuted Chalk/Crayon. Had I known, I would have chose a different color. I'm sure this applies for Voodoo buyers today. It's kind of lame of Porsche. People select PTS to have something rare... then Porsche sucks the rareness away... I was kinda pissed... and I would be too if I forked out PTS money for Voodoo.

This is a great photo I found from the GT3 forum. Missing Mexico Blue which I think goes between Riviera and Shark.
