Well as we went back and forth already more than enough we can agree to disagree. We all see colours differently, but many people including myself would strongly disagree with you. I spent much time with the colour in person, in different lighting conditions, and it in my eye has blue in it. So lets just keep this thread to what is was supposed to be the beginning, which was photos of the lovely colour as the mods suggested.

Love it! Those wheels look great, I had them on my 991.2. Will be exciting to see your photos after you receive. Hopefully you are happy with your similar colour choices to mine, I think it will be amazing.

@drive95 , you NAILED that spec. Wow! And in regard to the graphite blue interior, am I correct that the stitching is blue? (Especially when I see that interior on the configurator my eye sees it as silver.)

@nicholascanada , fine thread you started. Stunner you have as well.

Thank ya! Yes, unlike the two-tone leather interior options the stitching on Graphite Blue is not contrast; it matches the interior. I did consider selecting the extended deviated stitching in either Chalk or Silver Gray, but I couldn't swallow the $3,500 some-odd bill. In the end, as it turns out, I do not think it needs the contrast, but had it been a free option as on the 911 I would have chosen it.
