The on-line color sample in the Porsche configurator did the color no justice. I think that contributed to the low selection among buyers. In person I prefer Rhodium to GT Silver.... I find GT Silver too grey.

Reflections in a garage

Rohdium silver beside seal gray

here are a few on mine. Obviously I like it 😉 but in honesty a GT3 looks good in every color so just enjoy what you have!

I also love the Rhodium silver. It reminded me of the Polar Silver which I used to have on the 993. It has the tinted of blue hue which I personally thinks it is fantastic.

For me, GT silver over rhodium ALL day long, every day. FWIW, have a macan in Rhodium, but both an R and RS in GT, as well as a TON of cars in the past being GT...there really isn't anything like it at the end of the day. Arctic silver though I'll admit I used to love, that had less blue, it was just an extra shade lighter than GT silver, do miss that.

I'm surprised this is the 1st person to say anything about Rhodium being close to Polar Silver (one of my favorite colors). Rhodium is great and rare- GT Silver is a nice catch on the GT3 range as most of the time its an exclusive priced paint. Cannot go wrong either way imo

Rhodium is a great colour! It is more blue.

Had 4 cars in that. Here's the 2015 GT3.



Here's both 2018's in GT Silver in different lights. It is greyer.

I was wondering how the two compare… Unfortunately I can’t help because I have two GT silvers (992 C2S and 991 GT3) and one Polar (993 C4S) but nothing in Rhodium.

Here’s Rhodium in a few different lights… (ps I like it a lot, sparks up more than GT)

Even more so than Polar, on which it appears to have been based, Rhodium “glows” in light

Strange effect, not for everyone

< Not for everyone?… well neither is Top 40 radio nor GT Silver, the most common P-car colour ever. Rhodium wasn't on my radar screen before this car but now I love it. Sometimes you see a hue of blue, sometimes a hint of whiteish glow, and sometimes (overcast days) can be mistaken for plain GT Silver. A good varietal! My 2c, to each their own. Definitely GT is tops in the “least likely to offend category” when it comes to resale.

Agree with other posters that depending on the light can look deep silver or have a blue tint. Amazing color in person.
