My original build was Chalk with the red roof but I chickened out at the end because I couldn't see it in person and wasn't sure it was as dark as I would like. From a lot of pictures it looks closer to a cranberry than to the Bordeaux. I do think it looks good with the lighter interior but I am going to stick with black for my Chalk with the Bordeaux/Black interior.

Yeh i was a bit nervous - but happy with the results. A black top will be nice too on your chalk color. Would like to see pics when you get it.

Here's my new 992S in what one member here disparagingly referred to as "McDonald" colors.

But to me it's a happy color and looks bright and cheerful.

On the upside, yellow/orange are the preferred colors used on school buses…for safety reasons. Color stands out much better on grey/cloudy days.

The police will be able to spot you better. 😎 Just kidding. I actually like the color…enjoy.

That McDonald’s analogy is an idiotic comment given the likes of Ferrari, brands like Shell, etc all use such colour combinations.

I get so many thumbs-up from random strangers when I drive my RY 992S and I know its the colour, not just the car.

Enjoy your beautiful Carrera!

Beautiful config Jason, but I may be biased as my incoming is RY too! Enjoy it!

BOPE, I love yellow on all 911’s and yours is particularly awesome. I never understood how people can comment on color as if there’s a “right” or “wrong”. Besides , it’s a scientifically proven fact , white is the best 992 color. Kidding aside , I wish I was bold enough to rock the speed / signal yellow. One day , when I get real big.

RY looks great!

Lift is on its last lock so I can fit a small suv underneath. About two inches of room from top of car to ceiling. I’m in love with the 992 what a car. And the color combo is stunning in person
