.2 GT3 COLOR POLL

Thanks for posting the pictures of the GBM. It was a color I was flirting with. I do not like how it looks in the wild which is quite lighter than I imagined. Looks baby blue

Oh, one more thing, I've never seen a color is more impacted by the wheels, trim, etc. GBM needs dark wheels, and as much black trim as you can get to make it look its best. The light wheels wash it out. IMHO.
I'll let you all know my impressions when I receive the car!

having seen miami blue in real life quite a bit.. as i assume most have by now, i have decided I dont like it. it should be called miami green, or miami turqouise in my opinion. however, for those who are still trying to "see the green", i think this video of a miami blue GTS shows the color off quite well.

Got a chance to see Miami blue in real life. It was cloudy and the car was wet after rain so not the greatest indication of how it would look. I like the green in it.

Does anyone know if you select the red stitching, does it carry the red over for added leather upgrades like the extended dash, steering column, and the painted air slat surround? The 360 viewer shows the leather upgrades with platinum stitching instead of the red. I just noticed pictures from a recently delivered GTS in the 991 forum, and the stitching around the painted vents did not match that red stitching on the edge of the dash. Originally I figured the 360 viewer was not correct, but based on this picture maybe this is accurate.

In that group of pics the darker ones, like the one of the right side of the car, give a better representation IMHO. That said, I'm worried I'm not going to like it as much as I hoped. But I just remind myself, the first time I saw it in the wild, at the Porsche Sport Driving School at Barber, I said to myself, if I ever order another Porsche, it will be in that color. So I'm sticking to my gut reaction.

I'll be dropping it off at the detailer for paint correction and modesta coating. So the horror of waiting continues ...
Chalk, good choice now, but you'll be bored with it next year !
PTS: mexico blue or acid green, matching callipers ! WINNER ! (or if you are like me, I'd have the RubyStar/SternRubin)

This Poll is Meaningless
OP. To make this thread more realistic you need to re-do the poll with price of the colors next to it. I'm 100% sure PTS ($6,950), Chalk ($4,220), and Miami Blue ($4,220) will NOT be the most popular colors actually being ordered/ordering.
Realistically the most popular colors will be Guard Red ($0), White ($0), and Black ($0) as the top 3 of what people are actually ordering.
Otherwise, this poll is like saying what car you would like to own if money wasn't an object.

After seeing this color in person, I'm convinced a GT3 in GBM with black wheels is my next car.

Considering that PTS is very limited and requires the decoder ring from Trix and Calexio's Contra code, there isn't ANYONE who would give up their GT3 allocation if they were denied PTS.
The title could be "Which color WILL you order, presuming you get an allocation."
