How about this one - "wolf blue" - had never heard of it, but really like it (and the Singer 930T) - https://www.motor1.com/news/566425/s...1-turbo-study/

Shark Blue and Voodoo Blue are super close! Shark Blue is a great choice for blues if you don’t really want to PTS.

Deeper than Sapphire and no purple undertones like Gentian.

I went San Marino on my Touring after seeing it - was originally thinking Amethyst or Superior Red.

I would just get the color that calls to you. I can't see how anyone here could actually help with that. I wish you the best with this very tough decision. I'm a big fan of Oslo blue since I loved my recent trip to Oslo ;o).

Diamond Blue Metallic? A bit silver, a bit purple, a bit blue. One of the most unique colors in the P-car universe.

I could only use an iPhone and indoor fluorescent lighting but I figured it may still help some of you.

thank you

^Thanks.

Even though I started seeing Grey cars EVERYWHERE about 8 mo after ordering - I’m happy with my choice and wouldn’t change it.
My husband harasses me endlessly (“look!…. There’s a slate Grey minivan or look….there’s a slate Grey truck).

The biggest surprise about this color is how incredibly well it hides dirt. My last GT4 was Agate Grey. The Slate is FAR better at hiding dirt. I was worried a non metallic would show everything. But no. I think it looks great on the 911 too!

I wish I'd seen the blue color comparison before I order my PTS'ed 911.

Here are some blue comparisons against my Nogaro Blue.

1. Sapphire Blue vs Nogaro Blue

1. Maritime Blue vs Nogaro Blue

3. Miami Blue vs Nogaro Blue

I could not agree more, that is why I did not ask for any help (or opinion)
I was only sharing information I thought someone else could find helpful

BTW...nice pic!
