The two don’t clash with stitching. Many Python greens with lizard stitch. Belts are close but it works. You can stop clutching your tacky pearls now. 😂

I totally agree. The stitching is no problem at all. It's the seat belts that clash, in my opinion. In fact, if we could somehow substitute silver seat belts with the rest of the lizard green package, I would do that.

IGM vs GT Silver

GT Silver is safe and classic…but seeing all this RSN and PG is giving me fomo on something unique.

Not worried about resale…just like to be low key in many areas. I’m more a vintage Speedmaster vs. brand new Rolex type.

I know that’s ridiculous when talking about any 911 but some colors are more low key than others. One of the reasons IGM is now interesting but also a bit risky as I won’t have an opportunity to see one in person before my build locks.

Totally understand what you're saying. Part of me wants a Python Green T. Another part wants Shark Blue. But the interior is also important after all. So as of now: Jet Black Metallic outside (conservative and classy) with the Lizard Green interior package to give ME some subtle splash.

It’s not ridiculous at all. It’s why McQueen always ordered 6601 slate grey.

I'm on the same page. As cool as the shark blue and python green are, I needed and wanted to stay a little under the radar. I loved ice grey and thought of it as flashy on the white/grey/black scale and a modern chalk in a sense. The interior is where I could add some pop which is why I went lizard green. You don't need to go crazy to add some fun and character to your build.

I’ve always wanted an M&M car color. I’ve had the greys the blacks and Porsche has always been about color. I’m getting the green M&M this time. It’ll match my guards red 964😀. I’m getting python green because it checks a box in my head, and I love green. 🍀☘️🌿🌱🪀🧩🔋🔫💚💚💚
To hell with staying under the radar at this stage of my life. I’ll be the old gray haired guy in the pickle car.

Final Image. Looks like I won the tire lottery too! I’m a Michelin man.
