I'm really torn on Chalk vs. Ice Grey Metallic. If anyone has more pics of Ice Grey T's, please share! I think I've narrowed it down to those colors.
Reds/yellow/shark/ruby are too flashy for me, black is too hard to keep nice, white is a little plain, and gentian is too dark for me.
My last T was GT silver so I want something different this time. Though it does look beautiful on the 992.
P.S. I have about 10 days to decide! Help!
Same here. My last T was GT Silver and I wanted something different this time...but went with GT Silver again. Oh well... Go with IGM, just saw one at my local dealer, its stunning. I am sure you"ll be happy either way.
I saw IGM in Guildford today. It is stunning IRL, looks dull on the configurator!
IMO IGM is much better than Chalk, but you should see it for yourself.
flat pics don’t give it justice
@Barkat03 how much was this plate?
I saw it on the street today 8-)
That plate has been on two Bentleys prior to the RR. Can’t find a record of a sale so I’m guessing the Bentley owner simply bought a car to match the plate😄
I like chalk but there are tons of little chalk KIAs running around along with the other auto makers pumping out that color. I could see a trend in people ditching chalk because they’re just tired of seeing it. Your mileage may vary.
They are glossy and look awesome new; but having seen some 991.1T wheels lately after presumably a few thousand miles, they seem to get a little brownish without care.
Just clean your car regularly as you should.

Yes but you forget that when I open it, my car stops quicker than with PCCB.

I will make it easier for you. Chalk is great on a Turbo S. But you didn’t order a Turbo S. Chalk has less depth or lawyers. It’s chalk. It’s beautiful. But IGM is stunning because it has so much more to offer. It will change colors depending on the light. So it’s more alive. Therefore IGM will make you appreciate it more longer.

And on top of all that, Kia doesn't charge $3000+ to paint your car in Chalk or Arctic Grey or other trendycolors.
I did that on my 991.2 T - worked out quite well - I sprayed it with Plastidip - the plastic coating - survived many a jet wash too
Been thinking I might do the same on my new one (when it arrives!)
That looks awesome. However, I saw the part has pins on the back. Did you drill holes in order to put the logo on? I'd want something that would be adhesive as are modern nameplates/logos, i.e., no drilling.
I feel like a bit of a fraud😉 Having skipped my allocation I’ve just traded my 991.2T in for a chalk 991.2 GT3😳
Always wanted a GT3 and it was the same price as the 992T I had built. I blame Chris Harris as he prefers the 991.2 GT3 which led me down a hole on YouTube watching everything I could find…
Still love the T and delighted for you all getting your cars. I could well have made a mistake but time will tell…
