Was not a huge fan of PG on the Carrera, but might be better on the GT3. It has varying degrees of shine or flatness depending on lighting.

I think it will look better on the GT3. Then again, I think the 992 Carrera looks awful in general and the 992 GT3 looks pretty good.

Yellow only because Hagerty says it’s the most valuable color for a Porsche

I wasn't thinking of resale (never do since I plan on being buried in my cars)....but I think uniqueness has a quality all of its own. I agree with your overarching point though.....people should always get what they want and not worry about what other people want.

I've never had a problem with resale in any color Porsche - Black, White, Red, Yellow, Blue, Orange.

Trying to decide where those shark blue accents (lights, wheel rim) can be applied successfully to another color, but I don't really see it.

Maybe white to evoke that 996 Gt3 white blue color scheme?

Maybe black??

But otherwise I'm not feeling that option unless you want to go all shark blue including main color.. which, will be like 50% of all 992 GT3. (Total SWAG on my part)

Guards Red: for sure. With Silver painted wheels, black calipers, and steel rotor brakes.

Signed: motivated buyer, in search of an allocation.

ok my rennlist fam, need help making color decision. All previous (981gt4, .2gt3) and current Porsches (718spyder) have been white. In fact most of all my cars have been white. A lot of sweet colors available but I think I've narrowed it down to 3 so far (although catch me on a day when I've seen a chalk Porsche and that color may take the win). I can't decide between the base silver or the dark silver wheels. Gonna take a brake from black wheels as my previous gt3 had satin black wheels. Looked great but I think some of the wheel detail gets obscured when it's black.

-shark blue with silver accents looks really nice on config, matches nicely with silver wheels. Wonder how'd this look in person with blue silver contrast?
-I've always wanted to do GR on a Pcar. It'll the the "loudest" color I've ever done but I think it looks really good on gt3 and complements black bits around car well. Thoughts on silver vs dark silver wheels on GR?
-while I want to get away from white, I've always liked Carrera white metallic....any one whose had a CWM chime in on how the metallic adds to the depth and color difference in day vs evening?
-.......chalk?
- I'm +/- on side decal...

From these three configurations I definitely prefer the chalky one.
