I love this pale grey on the 981 in this Top Gear shoot out. Any thoughts on what it might be? Or just another paint-to-sample? More images in the article...

I would...in this instance. I am having a hard time with Rhodium. I don't know why. I once thought it would be darker...but I was wrong. Just don't 'get' this color.

Eduardo,

Why are you surprised? If anyone should understand the Porsche 'decision

I agree with you. The 981 is the car on the left.

That is a beautiful brown car, I know exactly why you got it.

I do like the 981 in the pic above. very understated.
