997 GT3RS Orange 8C6 (in the flesh on a whole car it looked lighter)
Gulf Orange 019

He didn't show Lava in this comparison.

In the photo with the various shades of 'orange', the current 'Lava' would appear the closest to the first one on the left - 'Blutorange/Tangerine'.

Default Ultraviolet...the best we have before actual photos!

From the Porsche Configurator:



From Conekilr:



From spcheng:



I am beginning to think that when this Ultraviolet color (and I am pretty sure it will be a solid/non-metallic) is finally revealed in photos and videos to the public, it will be strikingly beautiful! In fact, it will be simply stunning! After all the hoopla about 'Lava Orange', this purple might steal the show!

Eduardo , thank you sir. This is very helpful. The orange is pretty darn close to the red, ha? I also think the purple will be rare as most will shy away from it and agree it will look stunning.

No love for the white color? Eggplants and kumquats is the new rage I guess.

Is ultraviolet metal flaked ? It's not the same as the crazy purple that turns irridescent in different light...I think I saw it on a Mclaren pic..

Does anybody know if the metal brace for the rear wing comes only in silver when ordered with ultraviolet or can it be specified in black like it is with lava orange?

And a comparison to previous Porsche Oranges' even better!
TIA
I attended the press conference (I was in Geneva on the first press day last Tuesday). The orange is stuning, deep orange. Not like the 997.1 GT3 RS which was much lighter. I think I will take it.

Welcome back to the lis :-)

Did you go to the Porsche Closed Area as well: Any GT3RS there as well?

(Going there tomorrow)

That orange is hard to get / describe! Its not going into red! Its more the 2nd from right! Depending on where the lights are it looks cool and sometimes so la la to me! The closest real colour u can see online is that long porsche video of the gt3rs on youtube! When i take pics with the iphone6 it seems red but it isnt! Its def not getting into red tones! Lamborghini has the same colour! So does bmw on the i3 - i ordered it in lava orange but still dont know about it.... White mmmh / silver no / purple... I saw one by ford and it looked cool! They even didnt have that colour at porsche - amazingly stupid!!!
