Larry, unlike you I live in Sunny So Cal... so its never really overcast! I understand that Agate Grey in the Gloomy Bay Area would be very depressing and would probably chose a brighter color up there (like Lava Orange)!

IMHO... Look at all the truly special Porsche's in the past... Those are typically limited on the color offering. No different here.

Well, sorry to disappoint... this is the 'after tax season' dnimi. The kinder and gentler version. Hope thats not too upsetting for everyone as extension season will begin soon and Im sure I will be back in form.

Color is very personal. I loved my Agate 981 GT4. It was the only color choice that “spoke to me” when I spec’d it. It changed depending on the light and took on different personalities. I’d order that color again. Here are a some fave photos


Mid day sun at Pitt Race

In garage at Mid Ohio with overhead lights

Late afternoon sun at Summit Pt - one of my all time fave photos.

Almost sundown at grocery store

Rain

Dark Mid Ohio garage

In my garage. Hubby has almost surgical theatre lighting for detailing
