Anyone know if this is Rhodium or GT Silver? I think GT Silver b/c I don't see a bluish hue, but I can't tell for sure. http://www.autogespot.com/porsche-99...014/01/12#img1

Looks like GT to me.

I would agree with GT Silver, but the light seems low so the "blue" may not be as apparent as it is in Rhodium. Also in this particular photo, you can really see how the wheels fill up the wheel wells! My 991 Cab has a "large" gap by comparison - think the GT3 is 20 mm or even lower?

I want to see rhodium with silver wheels to see how it matches. That is definitely gt silver.. Very Grey and sinister that color.. I don't want to look at it too much in Case I end up wanting it

+1 on your combo request. I'm torn between this silver/silver and white/gray.

The GT3 in your photo appears darker than my Rhodium Silver, delivered 1/7/2014. See below photos taken indoors at my dealership before license plates, etc. Although indoor vs. outdoor lighting can create challenges in identifying these colors, I think your photo is of a GT Silver GT3 ... which I have also seen elsewhere previously and driven.

[QUOTE=Macca;11045707]White dials show too many cut outs IMO. The factory dials with the grey in the centre are better executed, work better with the black dial LCD screen and are classic GT3/RS/4.0RS.

what do you mean "...white dials show too many cut outs"...?

With white dials, the warning lights are "cut out" and appear black against the white background.
