I was at the PEC Atlanta this past weekend (Drove a GT3....Still catching my breath). They had a GT4RS in Arctic Grey - I am not going to post the pictures but it is clear that based on how light hits it, you see a lot of the blue in the shade and it really does grey out in the light. Very good looking color (my wife was really pumped up about it when she saw it in person). I'll post pictures when our car arrives (we are getting a 718T Boxster in Arctic Grey) - Not till November.

My C4S build in arctic gray. Graphite blue interior with chalk stitching. currently in milestone 4, delivery on 11/18. This is the build that dealer made and i took that allocation. Hopefully it looks ok and nothing is massively wrong.

Finally got the photos of my '23 Touring in Arctic Grey. Sitting at the port in Emden since last week! It's crazy how different this color looks in various environments.

Just changed my build to Arctic Grey from Shark Blue, GT Silver, Racing Yellow…was having a very hard time landing on a color. Arctic Grey is truly beautiful, and new, and not too wild, and different…enough.
now on to the other 1,989,866,345 configuration options………

Amazing color for the Touring…the front bumper painted in this color shows the shadows perfectly.

Dealer has a Nardo Grey Speedster and an Arctic Grey Cayenne on the showroom floor, couple of quick pictures for comparison. Unfortunatly they were parked on opposite ends of hte showroom so I couldn't see both at the same time. Plus they hopefully will have their first 4RS late next week (918 VIP customer car) so I hope to catch it there for an in-person look before delivery.

To my eye, Nardo has less blue in it and is a bit warmer/creamier.

Car just arrived at the far-away dealership where I got an allocation. I need to arrange to get it to me safe and sound. I still haven't seen this color in person.

This is the best any of us have gotten thus far. Thanks for posting!

And hell yes, it looks great... interestingly enough in these pics it looks pretty similar to Graphite Blue Metallic, which shouldn't come as a suprise... but this is more "special".

Awesome. I'll be sure to add mine when I get it, should be this week!

I don't think it's quite as blue in person but you'd have to see them side by side.

I LOVE GBM so it's not a shock I love this color also.

I decided to not pull the trigger on Arctic Grey. It was a difficult choice to make but opted against it as I was unable to see it in person. My local dealer had a Cayenne Turbo GT in AG I wanted to see; however, they were their normal unhelpful and unresponsive selves so I wasn't able to see it. I really think this is a color you must see in person in both artificial and natural light to get comfortable.
