Ice grey metallic is a newer color pegged between artic grey and white. It has depending on the light, blue, grey and white appearance with the added characteristic of sparkle. A very elegant and rich color. Porsche used it when they introduced the new RS.

It's the color I specified for my RS.

I got Ice Gray and it turned out better than I expected. Very nuanced and interesting colour.

No Weissach, No CCB...this is crazy talk...combo looks good for sure but missing key elements to me and for resale as well

Clearly to prevent leaks.

Nice spec! CCBs would come off the car and sit on the shelf for me so steel brakes are perfect for this car. I am not a fan of WP, $30k for basically zero performance improvements, $30k to put towards tires. Agree on the resale but I don’t worry about what the next guy wants.

The stealth actually helps highlight the metallic flake in the ice gray. On my 4RS (Carrera metallic white) and my 992 Turbo S (Dolomite silver) it allows the base flake of the paint to truly sparkle.

Side sticker to me looks black but what do I know...this is one of the hottest cars I've ever seen tbh. Ice grey metallic FTW. Brakes are always a contentious topic; cast iron or PCCB...there are cases to be made on both sides.
