Unless you’re sure you want Miami, don’t get it. It’s a love/hate color and if you don’t love it you’ll eventually hate it.
I agree no chrome... no wood interior too. Full leather is definitely worthwhile as is two tone. I think a lot of people put more emphasis on classic Porsche colors like green or chalk than they should. They were cool back then because nobody was doing it but now everyone offers colors like that. Metallic red/blue/orange/yellow/etc will always look good on a sports car and never get old. Just pick your favorite.

Glad to see you want a bright bold color, I would go 1. Miami Blue, love it, I get compliments on the color at least 1 per week, I mean, people roll their windows down while driving to ask me about the color. It gets a lot of attention, I got it only because I love bright colors on these cars. 2. A tie, Guards Red or Racing Yellow. Love them both, but MB is my fav!

In different light, close to dusk. It will have a bit more green in lower light, compared to the bright sun light photos above. I would absolutely do it again, I really love the color but I also like only gumball colors on 911s. Okay any color is good on a 911 but the bright ones look better IMO.

If you can tolerate the upcharge, try Carmine Red with the Platinum finish S wheels. I went with GT Silver on my 4GTS, but when I get a true GT allocation, it'll be CR (unless I go with PTS Yachting Blue).

If you can secure PTS, There's Riviera Blue (My incoming GTS is this color), Speed Yellow, Acid Green (Runner up in my PTS selection), are some bright *** colors.
Guards Red is always a good choice

I think Miami Blue will date really badly IMHO - it's not Porsche's finest blue hour (sorry to those that have chosen it). However, I think it would work a lot better in bright sunshine than the perma-grey we have in the UK! Lava Orange (Salmon Pink) is another of those love/hate colours - again, not that popular over here.
Is PTS an option for you? There are some really great yellow-y greens, Mexico Blue, Voodoo, Riviera. Or a bit left-field, how about Rubystone with black accents?
Good luck with your choice. All the above is just my opinion so should be taken with the appropriate amount of NaCl

..and I've got the perfect specs that I want, but the hardest thing for me to choose is the color.
All I know is that I don't want silver or black. I live in Florida so I like floral colors and light/pastel colors.
Any good suggestions? Im looking for a light color that looks stunning in nighttime environments.]
