Unfamilar-to-me PTS Color - Gray Black
While at the dealership this morning, I saw a PTS GT3 with a color that was unfamiliar to me. It is paint code 7A1, Gray Black, which has a different tone from Slate Gray. Apparently it was originally used on the 997 GT3-RS, the one with the red-checker striping. mirrors, and wheels. I always liked the look of that a lot but never realized what the base color was.
Anyway, here is a little eye candy showing off Gray Black. The red wheel accents work nicely too. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...25445d8be0.png https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...199f72147c.png https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...ea17be8038.png https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...32fc87813d.png |
Nice. What was the asking price?

That looks a lot like my Graphite Grey! I cannot tell from this image, but do you remember if it has any metallic elements in it?
|
There was a Sold tag on the dash and the sticker was gone. I didn't think to grab the VIN and I don't see it listed on their site.

Correct. Solid color. |
Thanks for posting...that is a BEAUT!

The red wheel accent is the ONLY way to do black wheels IMO. Looks great. Helps to delineate all the black space, and give a point of reference and depth/texture. Otherwise, cars with black wheels just look like an empty void, almost wheel-less.

Gray-Black was one of the standard colors available on the 2010-2011 997.2 GT3 RS at a approx. $3k upcharge. Mine was Gray-Black with Guards Red wheels, mirrors, and wing tips.
It is definitely non metallic. |
Red centerlock nuts would make the car look awesomer.
|
This car is another example of how Porsche could put any color whatsoever on a car, call it PTS, and people will go ga-ga over it. I'm still waiting for a urine infused River Yellow.
|
If you’re into gray cars, then that seems like a very interesting and unique choice. |

I really like this color. Although I left the Porsche ownership fold for a while I have ordered a TT RS in this color and am waiting, and waiting for it to be built.
