Default Yellow or GT Silver

I get an allocation for a 2016 gt3, 5000 over MSRP. The estimate deliver date is Jan 9th.

I'm so excited about this new gt3. After carefully consider all the cars in this price range, I just can not choose other car rather than GT3, though I have owned a 991 GT3, lol. "GT3 addictive!"

Currently I am choosing between yellow and GT Silver. Could you guys share your thought on these two color options? I rarely see a GT3 in these two colors, especially a yellow one.

Personally I prefer non-metallic colours on the GT3. I vote yellow! But get what you love.

Yellow is hideous on the 991 GT3 IMO.

GT Silver (or any other color).

I had a RY GT3, really liked the color on the car even though I'm not a yellow car person. My vote of those 2 would be Yellow.

Not a fan of either, parked next to a silver one at Road Atlanta, I thought it looked plain.

Personally I think white is stunning.

Too many silver cars around, also don't like metallic colours. I have a RY and I could not be happier.

One thing to consider is GT Silver is now a regular Met color on the 991.2 ($710) - it'll probably be one of the most common colors going forward if that matters to you.

Apples to oranges. Oranges to apples.

You've overcome the biggest hurdle. This should be easy.

IMO, the choice between the two is more about whether you want to be noticed more or less. I'm in the inconspicuous camp and hence went for GT Silver.

RY for me... I've seen RY in flesh and loved it. You may go with GT Silver if you like to drive in "stealth" mode.
