The more I think about it, I think it would be okay for a GT car with a bright shade like Racing Yellow, but for a C4S daily car, I think a lighter tone, pale yellow color would work better. The only option out there today for PTS would be Ivory, or maybe Stone Grey. Chalk works pretty well too. I found this photo with chalk/agave. Ivory might warm it up and add a bit of yellow versus the grey tone of the chalk.

Ivory:


Stone Grey:

The green makes me think of an old Buick with bench seats. Don't do it. It may be fun for a few weeks then youll have that ohhhh F moment. My 2 cents.

I like interesting colors and am thinking about doing something really odd but potentially unique and eye catching. I'm sure I'll get a lot of strange looks, but here goes... I like how you can get the exterior black parts all painted body color now, more like the 90's and early 00's cars with minimal black plastic. I also like solid color interiors like Porsche offers. The lowest pic is one that I found of a 996TT with Nephrite interior. I think the Agave might be better suited for yellow, but you get the idea.

Okay, I think I figured this out. PTS Creme White with Truffle Leather. So like this chalk/agave but in creme/truffle like this old TTS. And I'll have all the black bits painted creme too, so it's all white.

Creme white was the most unloved color that I have ever seen on a Porsche . I won't even go into details what it looks like . Its not what you want on a car and for Porsche it was as brief as Impulse red.

Nice and congrats!
I had a similarly picked set up as my alternate: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNTMVBI7
There's something about the yellow and the green that just work. Organic; reminds me of a lemon. This car is anything but a lemon, so a cool license plate idea I thought of: "! LEMON" ( as in NOT lemon )

Puke. That's got to be the ugliest color scheme ever to be thought of. Even the McPorsche is more palatable.

Thankfully I came to my senses and ordered a PTS Viola Purple Metallic (light purple blue color) with full Graphite Blue interior and Chalk stitching. It looks good in the renders…. I’ll post photos when she gets here in August.
