Black* to me looks awesome and is still one of my favorite colors.

*When clean.

And therein lies the rub.....and wash....and wax....and more rubbing....and wash......and rub.....and that's the first 5 days.....

Love black but I'm too **** to own it....

So, if it's prepped and waxed initially.. Then can it ever be washed in a regular car wash? Black with black headlights and white tail lights would seem like a deadly color combo IMO.

You guys can say whatever you want,this car still looks best in white!

I don't buy cars anymore according to my favorite colors,but according to what looks best in that particular car I'm buying. My 996TT looks best in Silver,my GTS in white and my E46 M3 in Silver Grey with red interior. I love Black,but to me these days I associate it more with " Executive " rather than " Mean looking " and in this particular car,it kind of hides the beautiful lines...

Just my 0.2c...

Agreed, this is my current color strategy as well. However, the 991 GT3 does look good in several of the offered colors so still a tough choice.

neanicu

Of course!

I was just pushing for white

The detergents used in most commercial car washes will tend to strip the hard won wax job from your car. It's that **** thing again on my part, Alex, but I would never take any car I cared about through a car wash, least of all a black one.

I agree with you, Nick, re: black not being the best color for showing the lines of this car although it still looks really good. And since you said I can say whatever I want , although white also looks very nice, it's not my favorite on the GT3 or any sports car for that matter. It appears unfinished to me, as though it's waiting for color or graphics of some kind to complete the look. To me something in some shade of red, one of the blues, or even a yellow is a better choice, with a silver or gray as an option for a more subtle look.

I don't mean to offend anyone's color sensibilities; it's very subjective. As I've said many times, along with others, it's difficult to make this car look bad, although the guy with the giant CUP graphic on the side of the car in the other thread tried really hard.....

Of course it's subjective Mike but we have nothing else to talk about
Agate grey is my second choice.
Guards red is a good choice too...hint hint
But of course,I wouldn't be afraid to go all the way with a Yellow or Blue.

neanicu

Orange anyone?
I kind of like it....

Mike in CA

I know, just didn't want to step on too many toes with my thoughts on white; a lot of people like it and it's just my opinion. Yeah, we need more people to get cars delivered so we've got something real to talk about!

And orange would be a bold choice and something that a car like the GT3 could definitely pull off.

Me too

Does anyone know what Blue this is ?
What about those white wheels...mmmmm...

neanicu

Mike,if you don't like white,check this out :
PTS?
Eduardo?

neanicu

Still White does it for me.
That's it,I'm done!

Nick, you're going to get me in trouble! Don't get me wrong, I didn't say I didn't like white (my Cayenne S is Sand White, a creamy white that I really like and isn't too different from your pic of the GT3 on the road above) or even that it doesn't look good on the GT3. It does. Just saying I prefer bolder colors on a sports car.
