As much as I really love viper green, signal yellow, pastel orange, etc... I am worried that over a period of months or years, I might feel like they are a bit too much for driving every week (this will not be a daily driver, but weather allowing I drive it every weekend). More show car or track only colors.

So I am trying to settle into a blue. I feel that it will be interesting/fits the car, but not quite as over the top. Problem now is which blue! I have done some searches, and there are a couple of long threads on blue colors on the 993 board and other places, but I haven't really seen enough GT3s in these colors to make a final decision.

Any pictures, personal experiences, opinions, are welcomed! Based on what PTS colors are available according to my dealer, I have narrowed down to Mexico, Riviera, Maritime, or Vodooo. I feel that they are oh so very close that deciding becomes even more difficult. I know the first two are lighter than the last two. Opinions? Pics? THANKS!
Hi there,
I am having the exact problem. I have to lock my order on the 4th of August and I feel lost, no idea what blue I am going to choose

And where will they find it? I have yet to see a dealer display that will have large enough samples of all in consideration.
