Default Which are the top 5 rarest PTS colors

I think I have one of the rarest PTS colors on one of my Porsches but now I'm really curious to find out what are the rarest PTS colors that still looks half way decent? Does anyone have any stats on how many times a Nato Olive has been painted? Mexico Blue? Etc.
I think Porsche painted Gold Bronze Metallic on my Spyder only a few dozen times, and here's the same color on Leh Keen's GT3.

Here's my Spyder...

Actual numbers are tough to come by but an approximate rarity scale is here on rennbow: https://www.rennbow.org/color-wiki?m...ch=1&go=search


As far as rarest, maybe the Chromaflair colors.

Aside from colors that have prohibitive pricing like chromoflair, wouldn't some of the worst colors tend to be the least chosen (I like yours, btw)?

I have Ipanema Blue Metallic saved for a future Touring allocation if I get another one. I have a Q7 in Ipanema Brown Metallic and it is such a great color.

Anthracite Brown Metallic could be one. I know there are only a few of these from 991.1 - 992.1. This is the only 992.1 Touring in this color.

I guess it would depend on the definition of brown. Audi Ipanema Brown looks orange to my eyes and looks quite nice on the R8. It’s pretty sporty looking on my Q7.
