Having owned a Riviera blue 997 Turbo I would have to say that Miami looks better in the flesh on a modern car, and Riviera/Mexico look better in pics.
Depending on what colors are offered on the 992 and future generations, people will saying how cool Miami Blue is and will be dishing out money for the PTS option. But obviously, colors are all subjective and I do love so many of the Porsche blues: Riviera, Mexico, Miami, Voodoo, Maritime..... Good to have options.
Mexico Blue is a very nice blue that fits most 911 body styles well. HOwever, Miami on the GT3 is in another league - very unique, special looking color that screams exotic.
When I first saw Miami blue on a few regular 991s I did not like it, and still don’t, but on a GT3 it somehow looks really good.
That comment echoes my exact opinion..I agree it suits the GT3, however after seeing photos of a new UK RS in Miami, i think it looks fantastic in it and possibly even better than LG..
