The standard ($1500) option is racing yellow.

You can select speed yellow via the extended deviated stitching options if you so desire.

Below are pictures of my 2021 GT4 and it has the "Racing-Yellow" stitching.

I'll add enough pictures that will hopefully show you what "Racing-Yellow" looks like.
The pictures are using a Samsung Model #22.
As you see it's Really-really difficult to take pictures that actually show the "Racing-Yellow" stitching !!!

Speed Yellow is out of style about a decade now in Porsche options.
Racing Yellow is the hot and current color.

Did you read the thread?

OP was asking about deviated thread color.

Yellow and Speed Yellow are both available.

OP was asking if the yellow was racing yellow.

Yup. I read the thread.
Speed Yellow is out of fashion nowadays, whether stitching or paint.
I don't know any Porsche folks who want Speed Yellow anything anymore, and I've owned 12 Porsches over the past 52 years, with lots of Porsche friends, in 5 different PCA regions.
Among Porsche colors, Speed Yellow would probably be a distant #3 Yellow preference, behind Signal Yellow and Racing Yellow.
That is my considered opinion.

OP wasn’t asking for preferences.

It was a simple question on the standard yellow deviated thread color.

Your preferences are noted…

2YJ,

If I had to even say in text 1-word in the Korean Language I couldn't.
Welcome to Rennlist

I cannot say this being 100% correct but I think Speed-Yellow was a little-darker and has more of the orange look.

Racing-Yellow I have is a Very-very BRIGHT Yellow and looks Great in my GT4 with No-Orange look at all.

Nice to meet you,
Terry

Any photos of speed yellow stitching to compare? I imagine it’s far rarer than racing.

+1 for Speed Yellow, at least over Racing. I'd need to see Speed and Signal next to each other to assess them, although the uniqueness of Signal gives it merit. Speed was EVERYWHERE, back in its day, and that was for a reason. Any current lack of interest is likely fatigue from over-exposure, if it is anything.

Speed Yellow is still used for PCCB calipers.

I’m glad it’s still in the mix.
