I agree. Definitely only white or black could be ordered without seeing them. Other colours need to be seen in person. The problem is however that even the sample plates dealers have might not be enough. Some colours fit certain cars and some other not necessarily.
I saw MB, liked that colour a lot on 718 but I am not sure if I am gonna like it on GT3.
There is Turbo on display at one shop so I will pay them a visit.

I'm a blue guy.
I sought a Mexico Blue 991 GT3 for a long time, but never found one. Now, with Miami I thought all was great. I went to see it at a semi-local dealer. It has an annoying (to me) yellow aspect that makes it a bit turquoise like. I would have jumped at Mexico, Rivera or Voo Doo, but I'm passing on Miami. No doubt, in certain light it looks like Mexico, but in other light, it's just got too much yellow for me.
See it in person, even if you have to drive a while to find one.
I'll likely do Sapphire (my third one), but if I ever get PTS. I would wonder whether to get Mexico when Miami is available. I don't know if it's worth "wasting" the PTS on Mexico. If get PTS, I'd go with Maritime.

Have seen it on non-GT 911s and wasn't a huge fan. Then I saw t on an RS and liked it a lot. The black bits are a nice contrast and it really pops. It is a polarizing color for sure, and one you definitely need to see in person. Because it is an unusual shade, it isn't very common IMO.

I do like it but should work much better with GT Porsches with black accents/wheels but also agree with other posts this is a color you need to see for yourself to decide and it is indeed different (much IMO) compared to the other popular blues due to the greenish undertones.
