Jet black for me. It hides the size of that rear glass/grill area.

Aventurine. Promises to hide some of the well less thought out curves well and fits the shape well next to being timeless + special.

Aventurine Green wins in poll. Whats so special about that color?

I prefer catchy color/bright color in a crowd for a sports car

I hope they add some new colors to the palette. Most of these are 991.2 carryovers. As of now I'd lean Avertunine Green but with some aftermarket stripes/decals for contrast (yellow PCCB, with matching yellow stripes and trim on top of the AV Green should look great IMO).

It's time to remake this commercial. I've always felt one of the best aspects of the 911 design (any generation) is how well they wear any color.

I'm torn between Gentian Blue and GT Silver. Tough decision. Sometimes its easier to just buy one used, that way you don't have to think about it.

Aventurine Green is a little bit lighter then agate and in the sun the green pops unlike agate that has a bronze tone in the sun. I think Porsche could have done a better job with the green, its to
conservative and looks boring. I think people will be disappointed if they want a true green color. Is just a shade of grey green, nothing else. For med green is Irish green.

Gentian blue is almost like Bmw carbon black but at bit lighter with moore blue. In the sun its dark blue but in the nightime i think its going to look black.

Blue you are showing looks more like Night Blue.
Gentian Blue is brighter, shinny. Check the picture of 992 in Gentian Blue:
