As far as I know, the only way to get Graphite Grey, right now, is to get a 991 50th. It is not on the approved PTS list, nor is it even up for feasibility review.
if it's been painted on 991 in mass production, how could it need a "feasibility review"?

I think Eduardo might be the right person to answer that but from what I seem to remember, Porsche does not want to give the "special colors" of the limited editions to the "normal" cars.
I think it was also impossible to get the grey of the Sport Classic for any other 997.
Like that, the limited editions stay a bit more special...

Yeah, I just realized I wasn't super clear about that. I meant that it's not even being considered for PTS yet (which is what I consider the "feasibility review" step to represent -- more than just whether or not the paint itself can hold up to weathering, etc., etc).

Indeed. Eduardo's the man in this case (well, in many other cases too, heh).
But yeah, you're right, Sport Classic Grey (63A) has not been made available via PTS, and I suspect PAG will keep it that way.
I believe Brewster Green and Pascha Red have both been available via PTS. Brewster Green was from the limited-edition Club Coupe and Pascha Red was from the GUM/Russian 50th anniversary model. These are just off the top of my head. Eduardo can correct me if this is wrong.
Had a chance today to take an up close look at a 911 50 in Graphite Gray. Wow, did I like that color! Very tastefully done with black/dark silver houndstooth interior. It's a shame the car is essentially built the way I would do it - now I will be stuck dreaming about it.
Last thing you want to do is take a special edition that is based on appearance and change the appearance. OTOH, this is easily removable. For when you come back to your senses.
