My dear Eduardo, may I ask you the huge favor to post here whatever confirmed picture of Gelbgrün you might have? It will make my wait less painful!!

P.s. My Italian dealer just had a chat with PAG and apparently they haven't got the paint as of yet, so looks like every Gelbgrün car will be delayed until they'll receive it...mine was scheduled for Jan production!

Thank you!!

You won't regret Signal Green.I had the same problem with my Signalgreen Spyder.The 4 greens are all very close to each other.IMO Viper is a little bit to dark,a little bit to agressive.Signal and Green 2D8 are "lighter" and look nearly equal.Perhaps Green 2D8 is the safest choice.
The pics above show from left to right Viper,Green 2D8,Signalgreen,Puregreen and Gelbgrün.

Great shot, any idea what colour is to the left of viper green?
Now would life not be easier if all the dealers had a wall like this?

Educated guess, but having spend all night last night going through colors again for an upcoming order I would say it's Olive Green based on what's approved.

Love olive green. Not sure if it would work on a modern RS or GT car? But looks spectacular on that old 911.

IMO Viper is a little bit to dark,a little bit to aggressive. Signal and

This NEW display of PTS samples on a black background is just a few
months old at the Porsche Factory Delivery area of Zuffenhausen. It
wasn't there when I last visited in July (2015). Here is a stunning photo
of it posted by 997sc, one of our Rennlist readers from Germany:



***

There is still a side room in that delivery area that is used for 'Porsche
Exclusive' consultations with customers & has a similar display of color
samples, but on a background wall that is 'white':



***

The thing that I want all readers to pay attention from the photos above
is how varying light on the color samples makes the hue appear completely
different (rsgt vs 997sc vs mine). Also how the color looks on a photograph
will depend on the camera lens & filters used.

So caveat lector. Do not make a definite conclusion on any a Porsche PTS
color based on PHOTOS posted here (by me or anyone else) of a sample
chip or an actual car. You need to see the color in person to let you eyes
judge for itself the hue & tint. My dos centavos, for what it's worth.

Saludos,
Eduardo

I love it too - really hard to tell how it would work. I'm actually thinking about it or Sepia brown. But will probably end up wimping out in the end...

Jamie has done a great job of posting those 'Gelbgrün' photos for you.
As you might know, he is getting a gt4 in that stunning color too!

But here are others from that 991 gts from Porsche Zentrum Hamburg:



Starts on post 866 :

We have also discussed this color at the link before:

Good luck with your built. We look forward to seeing the
photos once you receive your car.

The color above Signalgreen on the new wall at Porsche Zuffenhausen is Birchgreen.The green on the right is Gelbgrün (I took the samples from the wall and read the color names).
The GT3 RS I saw a few weeks ago at the factory is confirmed as Gelbgrün.
