Planet I was told pebble was on back order....did your SA mention anything about this to you?
Didn't mention it, but I'll check and update. If I can't get Pebble in a reasonable amount of time, I will probably choose Rhodium. ...Though Graphite Blue (if still available) might be an interesting choice, given that my exterior is a blue. But I wonder if it would provide enough pop? Curse the lack of sample images...
I can officially leave the Waiting Room. We picked up our car at the PEC Atlanta this weekend, it's back home and getting to know its garage mates. Oh, and for anyone thinking of taking delivery in Atlanta it was fantastic! I highly recommend it.

Man, tell me about it! I've been tweaking mine for almost two months and am still not done (%99 done). Also, thanks again for your advice on the dealership... I followed your lead and I couldn't be happier.
Regarding the car -- looking good! A timeless/classic look without being boring. Nicely done. Any pics of the interior? Would like to see how that deviated stitching looks...

Yeah, I would go with Rhodium before Graphite Blue. Even though both are "blue" they are totally different and, instead of a healthy contract of colors that compliment each other, I think the two, different blues would just clash.

Racer: First, what a lovely car! Second, tell me/us more about Atlanta delivery, please? I am having mine delivered in Atlanta, but I am wondering about details--how long, the schedule, track time, if it was early in the day, etc. We are hoping to take its maiden (young man--not to be sexist) voyage to Key West, and then home to VA via I-81 and Skyline Drive. And we were wondering about schedule--primarily for getting through the Miami area avoiding rush hour traffic, etc.
BTW, my sales associate has not been able to verify that Pebble Grey is on backorder. Perhaps because it's on back order for orders which have reached a certain point.
I was able to get the following (kinda crappy) screenshot of currently available color options. I hadn't seen anything approximating color swatches before, so this may be of interest to others, as well.
Plan A: Pebble Grey.
Plan B: Rhodium Silver.
Plan C: Chalk.

I also would recommend LCW's thread. I can add that when we were there they did two deliveries and we were the afternoon session. There's a lot to go over, and it took the full afternoon, 12:30-6:00. All worth it though.
My build locks next week, so I'm getting excited. I'm pretty happy with this spec:
-911 Turbo, Guards Red, Leather Interior in Black
-Turbo Wheels with Painted Porsche Crest
-Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC)
-Adaptive Sport Seats Plus (18-way) with Heating & Ventilation
-Deviated Stitching (Guards Red) - Seats, Dashboard, Upper Door Panel, Rear Side Panel, Center Console Lid, Armrest, Door Handle
-Heated Multifunction Steering Wheel, Smoking Package, Porsche Crest on Headrests, Model Logo on Storage Compartment Lid
-Lane Change Assist, PLDS+ (auto high beams)
-Burmester Stereo
-Aerokit Turbo (Black)
-Glass Sunroof
-PORSCHE Logo and Model Designation Painted (Black)
-SportDesign Side Mirrors w/ Black Lower Trims, Painted Headlight Cleaning Covers, Dealer: Clear Side Markers instead of Amber
The red on black aerokit look isn't for everyone but I really like it. We have an SUV for snowy/salty/miserable days, but otherwise I'm expecting to drive this car year round. I'll pick it up in December with winter tires, rubber floor mats, and probably a full car wrap (Xpel/Suntek/3M).
Since I'm not a fan of centerlocks I didn't love any of the turbo wheel options, so next year I'll keep my eyes open for an aftermarket set. I like having a set for summer and a set for winter that I can swap in my garage.
Here's an exterior rendering - the configurator is fun to waste time in:
