OP, carmine red with silver sport wheels gets my vote https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...da6a764e52.jpg
And if you spec it with espresso-cognac interior and 18 ways (or 4 ways plus), I'll buy it from you when you are ready to sell . ha ha.
(btw, I saw your current ride has espresso/cognac interior, how is it holding up? It's my favorite non LTS color).

What is Night Blue? Never heard of it. That green in out there!

Miami blue with glass sunroof (black roof), black wheels, black exhaust tips and black "Porsche 911" on rear. I think that would be spectacular. Sure would stand out and wouldnt look like "your Wifes car".

Given your choices, I like the Miami Blue third pic wheels. I would suggest you do a search to see actual pictures of the colors and wheels. Better still, see if your dealership have cars/wheels in stock.

Agate... I miss the beauty of my previous agate 911.1 One must look at all the cars in the flesh to get this right. Take your time and enjoy the courtship, unless you are offered a super deal along the way and need to jump.

A new wrinkle. Went and talked to the Sales Manager today about trade in for my 2015, as well as discount off MSRP. I'm a repeat customer and am very happy with both trade and discount. So......I might spring for a GTS as it comes with power kit, and it's not a whole lot more than the C2S I was looking at. The C2S was an absolute rocket, can't imagine what 30 HP more in the GTS would be like, but want to find out! So, in the configurator, I came up with this one in Miami Blue with center lock wheels. Thoughts? The other iteration would be Carmine Red with the same wheels. I'm showing both, although I really want the Miami Blue I think.

That Miami blue is spectacular IMO. With centerlocks you are restricted if you want to go aftermarket for wheels. Those look great though. That thing will be a rocket.

My comment: stop looking at the configurator renderings. In my experience they never do the color of the actual car justice. When I ordered my Panamera in '14, the configurator showed Ruby Red Metallic as being rather flat and saturated, which it most definitely is not if you see an actual car.
Photos are usually better, but can still be misleading, due to sometimes-iffy photography. Check out a range of photos online if you can't see the color in person.
I think you should test drive a 991.2 GTS to find out if you'll feel the extra HP. The extra power only kicks in about 6500 RPM, even with the new turbocharged engines. If you're not really pushing the car, you're not going to feel the difference from an S.

That is very helpful, thanks. Wish the dealer had one to try out.
