Any color choice I ever regretted was any shade of gray. I just think of that color scale as incredibly boring. My dealership has an arctic gray car they’ve been trying to move for some time and I sold them back my Shark blue wing that is also a manual car just a year off on model year but mine sold within 24 hours and that car is still sitting there. Arctic gray looks like primer gray with a clear coat on it to my eyes.

I currently have a white GT3 on order. I might end up regretting the color. I really wanted something different and bright like Shark Blue or Yellow or some sort of Orange (which would be ideal). Not a PTS allocation, or I would do Gulf Orange or Lava Orange. From the remaining colors, I already had a guards red and gentian 911, so I wanted something different. Don't like rubystar neo, so that was our and the rest of the colors are basically blacks, whites and greys. Decided white cars always look good (when they're clean at least) and ordered that figuring I can always wrap it if anything.

Bought Lava Orange, loved it when I saw it, love it more now. Only colors I would regret might be blue, or black, but that's personal.

I've never regretted white on a 911 - it's a great color for Porsche, both historically and aesthetically.

Black can be an amazing color in a GT3 Touring. But not on level of PTS, especially Azuro Thetys and Porsche Racing Green.

Gentian blue with silver wheels and chrome is definitely a looker.
