Is this platinum or GT Silver?

Hard to be certain, because each is full of silver flake and pick up so much reflected light. I would say Platinum.
Platinum has a slightly "brighter/warm" bit of gold undertone; GT is slightly "deeper/cool" with a blue undertone. My RS-60 was GT and it stood out, my current 991 below is Platinum and looks equally good to me.

Pretty sure that's not GT, which was on my 40th anniversary 996 - GT has a bit of black in it.

- Both work with black.
- Anything with brown tones would fit best with Platinum.
- Blues or grays, including the dark gray that was in my RS-60 , or white would work really well with GT. Red/GT would be a classy retro classic.

It's platinum. # of the Pcars i've owned have been GT, including my new S Cab. The platinum looks almost the same regardless of the light, while the GT changes with every change of light.

They both look nice. After a while I get colour blind. Sort of like shopping for diamonds. They all start to look the same. I have a silver/black 997 and plan to get the same combination on the 991. I fell in love with this combination when I was 10, so I don't intent to change. Also, no one at work will notice that I got a new car.

I agree. In direct sun light there is a lot of gold that both my wife and I disliked, so went with GT silver.

This is platinum silver.
Few months ago while placing an order, my 7 yrs old held both in the sunlight and I took a snapshot...attached. Right one is GT Silver and left one is Platinum Silver...I went with GT Silver.
