Not to pick nits (well I guess I am), but it was Carrara white (as in Carrara marble) not Carrera white, and yes, it's different than plain white. The color code for Carrara white is B4 while the current white used on the GT3 is OQ. Carrara white is a slightly "warmer" color than the current white with a hint of yellow.

So is the 997 GT3 white the same as the 991 white or something else (Carrara)?
Sorry... Just trying to know exactly what I've witnessed in person. I've seen past GT3s in white and they looked too bland to me.

Think again. The yellow-color of the PCCB calipers is very different from the new 'Racing Yellow' exterior color offered by Porsche. The two don't match very well. I have attached a shot of a 'Racing Yellow' 991 with matching color wheels and PCCB to illustrate the point. There is no simple answer on this question.
