there is a " new " GT silver/ yachting blue interior C2S cab in the South Bay at the Pcar dealership if you want to see it in person ..pics don't capture it well..it is an ex factory exec car so loaded up the wazoo with high MSRP ...hence it has sat for a long time - prob would be long gone if it had a PDK and black interior ...don't know if still there ..with 2015s arriving in a couple months, I suspect one can buy it for $ 50 k off since they bought it well below invoice and using the " I don't like the manual nor blue but will take it off your hands ..." bargaining tactic.
I wouldn't pay more than low 90s max and be certain it has the auto rev matching on downshifts which early production 2013s with manuals did not have despite having optional Sport Plus .

good luck and since it's a cab, you can see how the blue looks in full sun
it's a love it or leave it interior color, but IMO better with extra cost GT silver than the now std bluish rhodium silver

Yachting blue PTS exterior with two-tone yachting blue/pebble grey exclusive interior - the most beautiful cab I have seen to date -bar none !

I think I am now leaning towards sapphire blue ext, black full leather, trim painted to exterior, and racing yellow belts ... I thought about blk/platinum gray ... but not so sure now

Is this in addition to your beautiful MB GT3? Or would you like to sell that to me to make room for the new ride?

the yellow belts would coordinate nicely with the PCCBs , but you should then get the black top if going with black interior

Although fashion types say always limit to THREE colors ...I'd either go yellow belts or sapphire int trim but not both, since going blue/black/ yellow outside and inside may be a bit too much..I'd do the belts, as the plastic dash trim in the 991 is now so chunky , it doesn't look as nice painted as in the 997 when they were thinner accents

hence my confusion! - I am fashion challenged!

exterior is fixed: sapphire blue
top: blue or black
interior: blk or blk/platinum
belts: silver, blue, yellow, black
trim: "as is" or exterior

I really think the top should be blue, so maybe blk/gray & silver belts and std trim is the way to go

If you are really set on the blue top , I would chose all platinum grey or the higher upkeep agate/pebble interior , with blue belts

all black or black / plat interior would clash with blue top, imo
