Default Aurum Wheel Color

Like all options, I have not been able to see the Aurum wheels in person. Are they different than the GT3 "gold" wheels? It seems that the GT3 color is much lighter, maybe more of a champagne but I can't tell. Has anyone actually seen them?

GT3 wheels can be spec’d in Neodyme. Similar to Aurum, but different colors.

Not mine, but a good pic. Seems like the color changes dramatically in sun/shade

looks best on white and red from what I’ve seen. I think I like the GT3 gold better though

Much like OP I have been unable to see these in person. I ticked the Aurum box, but honestly I’m still on the fence and think it’s 50/50 if I will like them in person. In your pics they look almost beige. Do you think they come across differently in person than in photos?

Better in person for sure - depends on the contrast to the body paint, my friend has 718 GTS4.0 with GT Silver and Arum wheels and they look a little different to mine, maybe a little more muted.
I'd spec them again for sure

I’m wondering how they will look on agate. They look bad to me on the configurator but I don’t think it is a good representation
