Default Touring Silver or Touring Black or Wing? GT Silver or Miami Blue?

I'm considering these 3 options but having a hard time deciding More or less the same amount of options (MT, leather, LWBS, lift, PCCB, LEDs,Bose, interior bits, etc). Will not be a daily driver, perhaps only some weeknights and weekends and the regular early Sunday morning drives. Will track maybe around 6 weekends per year, maybe less. While I like the low-key classic looks, I like the loud colors as well. So 3 different trims and 2 different colors. The perfect answer is to buy all 3 I don't expect everyone to love these exact ones but if these were the only 3 choices, which would you most likely pick? Maybe the right question is: Classic or Modern look?
Thanks.

Silver or black. Miami is a color I think most people will get sick of very quickly.

Don't go with GT silver and black touring. Your making my order way to common.

Go MB but contrast it with the yellow and PCCB.

Black Touring because GT silver is the wrong color for the chrome trim.

No regular GT3 because it's the tweener package. It's the car that's in-between the 911 you don't want and the RS that you do.

Get the touring and cross your fingers that it isn't available on the upcoming RS and you've got something special. Basically, an R with a superior engine minus a couple cool parts at half the price.

What other cars do you currently have and in what colors? Personally I am not a fan of White, silver, black cars but understand to each his own. What I don't understand is when people have like 4 white cars in the same garage. Mix it up a bit based on what else you have.

Thanks.
Which one did you decide on? I'm now torn between silver LED and silver trim vs silver LED and black trim vs PDLS xenon and black trim...all with silver wheels and pccb.

Well, PTS for the Touring opened up about 10 days after that original post and I decide to combine A and C. PTS Pure Green Touring with aluminum trim, standard silver wheels with standard xenon headlights and PCCBs. Got lucky and made it right before the stop order.

I would do black trim Touring with pdls xenon and platinum wheels or silver trim Touring with standard xenons and standard silver wheels. I would save the LED money and use it towards something else. The LED’s brightness is supposedly limited due to DOT regulation, plus they adds weight and cost more.

What exterior color are you going with?

Congrats! That's going to be stunning. I'm going GT silver, originally had GBM but they are phasing it out by the time my car is built. Would xenon pdls go well with black trim and silver wheels on GT silver? I was going for the 964 RS gt silver look.
