Here is a pic of the CGTS in agate grey with the black wheels if this helps!

Both are nice colors but I think Agate works better on the 718 with the dark taillights and features. To me, GT Silver works better on the 981/991.

+1 That is beautiful. Of course my build (hits the Porsche body shop next week) is GT Silver with Black/Bordeaux leather interior, so I may be a hair biased.

How does that work? What's black and what's bordeaux? I love the look of red interior but there needs to be a smattering of black in there somewhere or else it looks like the pit of hell to me. Black steering wheel? Black carpet and console?

I feel the same way. I never liked all red interiors (or black for that matter). Then I saw the 718 in Black/Bordeaux and fell in love with it. Just the right mix of both for me.

Congrats OP. I actually just changed the color of my GT3T on order back to GT Silver from black.

Dang. That is near perfection. Although I do like the red top dash at times, I think it would be too much as time went on and I would long for black. You must be chompin' on the bit.

Here's a link to a video that shows GT Silver with Black/Bordeaux leather interior.

That is SOOOOOOO much better than the full leather interior sea of garnet in my 981 GTS.

It's a great interior choice, only bettered (IMO) by the GTS interior pack with carmine red stitching but then you need to buy the GTS!

The Bordeaux is nice because it's not a bright Red - more that deep wine Red - which i am fond of a glass or Bottle or two
