Silver is nice and hides dirt well. Black is impossible to keep clean and shows every flaw in the paint or body panels (I have two black cars). You can't swing a cat without hitting a red Porsche. White is a fleet vehicle color and hard to keep clean and yellow look cheap/tacky if not done right.

If I end up painting it silver does anyone have the paint code for stone grey metallic? I agree that it a real nice color, I was stuck between Black and silver, it's kinda close here too

Silver looks really classy, if kept clean. . . Guards red is kind of the "classic" on Porsches though.
Black always looks dirty unless you're INSANELY obsessive about keeping it clean. My neighbor has a gorgeous restored 1970 El Camino with beautiful black paint but he ALWAYS keeps it garaged, covered and wipes it down with a soft damp cloth after its weekly drive. It's what's necessary to keep the black from looking like crap and getting little scratches in it. When black looks good (like his) it looks unbelievable (I swear I could swim in it, it's that deep looking), but it takes next to nothing to make it look like garbage. If you want a show car / garage queen like his, black is a good choice. For a driver, I wouldn't touch it.
White is nice too, can look really classy.

I'm against changing a car's factory color, but Zermatt Silver would be my pick out of the list in the poll.
I like metallic colors on Porsches, and red on Italian cars.

Arctic silver! Definitely my first choice, I also like Pete's color alot I think it's Baltic blue....? Stone gray is cool as well. When I buy a turbo soon though, I'm shooting for alpine white.
