I had a white RS, but I were ordering a 991 GT3 I'd go with red. I just think red adds to the aggressiveness.

Like the body in white Cup car, the GT3 street car looks the part in white. Simple, pure and clean.

If not a daily driver I would go with Red - car looks great in red and it is more unique. Everybody has white!

Enjoy it whatever color you get!

I have several DD's. It will be in that rotation. I quit worrying about that a long time ago.

Good problem to have. my vote is white, i think it is more desirable esp for future resale if you like trading up.

You have a point there. The color polls here and the percentage of people who choose white cars in general bear that out. Myself, I plan to keep this car a long time and am pleasing only me......

I think there will be so few of them for awhile any color will sell. Red is about 40 percent.

I chose white. But now and then I have little doubt about my choice. I also like the GT-silver with black headlights.
But I did not want to go for a metallic paint because that is too elegant IMHO. More for a 991 cab or Turbo.
What are your thoughts on this?

And what do you guys think on the black PDLS? I didn't choose it on a white car. Thought it was too much contrast. Also since I haven't seen the black PDLS in the flesh I didn't. I went for the LED's. On the configurator they seemed more in between black PDLS and the normal silver headlights.
Very curious on the result!

I ordered the black headlights. I saw it on a brand new 991 C4 while visiting dealer. The new owner had it put on after he took delivery It looked absolutely awesome. My exterior color is white. Not sure how good it would look like on other colors. Also, ordered clear taillight. I say go for it. Wont regret.

I love silver, but had feelings similar to yours. I always have second doubts about color and have to revisit the thought process every so often that led me to my choice in the first place.

On the lights, I didn't want the standard chrome finish so I ordered the optional PDLS which are gray, but didn't spend the extra $900 for black. I think the gray finish will look good with red without calling too much attention to themselves. Just my $.02.
