I am going to summarize this thread up until now. Every freakin color looks great. There is not one single color that I would regret. Now- you have to decide which color in 6 months would bore you less

My only problem is that to go with the Satin Aluminum wheels you need either Agate of Black. - I am really digging the Satin aluminum

Maybe I am wrong and/or need convincing but with all the black accents on this iteration we are being forced in to the darker wheels- No!!??

I am surprised by the Miami Blue #s
Agree with your observation. Rhodium is a very interesting color though. It really has a light blue hue at times which for some is great. Miami Blue is close to Riviera(PTS) so many are leaning for this available upgrade. I like the color options by Porsche on the .2. I just wish they offered a different Yellow.

12 pages and not one Lava?

When the 6MT was announced, I was all over that, but now that reality has set back in, I find myself more conflicted than ever over the transmission options. The GT4 shifter never disappoints, but the DCT in the M6 is like the crack of a rifle.

10% track and 90% street would logically say 6MT, but like AP said..."The immediacy of this engine is absolutely mind-boggling. From 2000 rpm all the way up to 9000 rpm, it's just a brute."

Decisions...

Not if you have the scoops painted.

Just need to decide whether you prefer an M4 or bolt action for your rifle.

I'm going to go Lava Orange. Goes well with all the black trim.

haha... am I only one who got this??

Seriously, I'm torn between GR/black rims, SB/Graphite rims or GT Silver/black rims. All with PCCBs.

Decisions!

PTS or a beater Miata

I think I'm in the minority in thinking graphite blue looks great in person.

The PTS and CXX threads from Eduardo are incredibly helpful. Amazing insight.

Pretty sure at this point these cars are equivalent to a long barred .308 AR platforms, for better or worse...

Graphite Blue looks great. At first when I saw at last year in the Dealer I thought it was just okay. After seeing it a couple more times have grown to really like it. Then- I got to see it in the sunlight and the hue changes to a grey. So - it has a Blue hue in the shade and a Grey one in Sunlight - me likey.

I am torn between Graphite Blue with Satin Black wheels/PCCBs or Jet Black Metallic with Satin Aluminium/PCCBs

I completely agree. It also looks like a flat paint in the shade. The tiny metallic flakes aren't really noticeable. Then you see it outside...

I don't think you can lose with either combo - great choices. I'm a fan of different, so I prefer Graphite out of all of the standard colors.
