X100.
I'm also going yellow. Long term if you ever sell I personally believe yellow will help you despite what others may say, it's more rare so if someone wants it their options on the second hand market are minimal at best. Save the boring, everyday black for your SUV. Way too common out there today.

I have a “make me smile” philosophy that has helped me choose car colors. Simply I imagine opening the door to my garage and seeing my car. If that color puts a smile on my face even before I get in it then it’s a good color. You shouldn’t have to justify a color with resale value, elegance etc.

I specd jet black metallic with yellow belts and sport chrono. All the people that say `the world has enough black 911s` there is a reason. It just looks so good in black. Pain to keep clean yes, but worth the hassle. The metallic looks great in sun. Slight Hints of blue and purple.

I love it when people buy flashy colors - especially colors I'd never get. So selfishly I'd say go for yellow.
Realistically, you need to be confident about a color like that. If you aren't, normally I'd say go with something safer.
Seeing that you've had this dilemma before and were happy with the wild choice....your answer is yellow.

In my view, 911 is a special car, so grab a special color.
You can buy good old family cars/suvs in mundane “classy” colors.
I was also debating between white or black 911 and ended up with carmine red. I think I would have regretted a lot if I went with white or black. I’ve seen plenty of white, grey, black 911s (992) around VA recently and let me just say I’m glad I got my carmine red.

I happen to love black cars . If I did yellow I would have to paint the calipers black . The red with yellow is Ronald McDonald IMO. Throw on side skirts an aerokit and a carbon roof and its bad A$$ . However one can tone it down too. It works either way . I just could not live with it every day . Sometimes I like peace and quiet . Black does offer that . Here's over the top yellow .
