For those of you considering a PTS Blue or Grey hue I wanted to post photos I took of samples I looked at today. Not all colors are included (Nardo Grey and Azzurro Thetys are misssing, for example) but at least you can see some colors side by side.
I could only use an iPhone and indoor fluorescent lighting but I figured it may still help some of you.

IMO if you’re spending money on PTS - I’d get an actual color.

So blue for me.

Thank you. Very thoughtful.

Right side, 2 & 3 down. Appear almost the same colors. What are those colors names?

ipse dixit

Only color I would pay PTS $$ for is Liquid Metal Silver.

The problem with Blue is that Shark Blue is like a PTS considering it is one of the better blues they made available recently that is not PTS. I actually never considered Blue until Shark Blue, which my Son really wanted me to get, and I am looking forward to my April delivery

May be consider a Slate Grey which has some nice History

thanks for pics, but the names of colors are a little blurry

Fair point. I bet if you looked at PTS numbers, the greens outnumber the blues this time. Shark Blue existing is probably one of the reasons.

I remember Voodoo Blue being super popular in the 991 generation, but the overlap with Shark Blue is very close.

I think the blues are classic along with the greens. I know Shark Blue gets a beating at times, and I suggest if it was PTS people would be all over it. My mind it’s a cheaper version of PTS if that’s an option for you. Many forget next go around Shark Blue may be PTS ……such as Aqua blue which was standard on a 911. Summation if you’re going for a blue and it’s close to PTS and you can’t tell the difference from afar go with Shark or a historic like voo-doo. Good luck.

San Marino Blue makes it tempting to go PTS.

Deeper than Sapphire and no purple undertones like Gentian.

Kinda hard to tell with just the paint samples. I'd use PTS Explorer to get a better idea of how it'd look: https://www.ptsexplorer.com/

Also, I agree that grey is a waste of money, so I'd go for blue. Despite what a popular book might say, there aren't actually that many shades of grey.

I'm a fan of deep sea blue. Grey PTS is a waste, I agree. But I'd never pay 12/15k or whatever for a PTS color. That said, I am paying some 2 or 3k for a CXX option - the 991 style porsche stripe across lower sides, in a color to match the hood stripes.

Thank you, would have loved to have seen slate grey (non-RAL) included.

I asked for a few specific color samples, slate grey (6601) being one of them….unfortunately it did not make it…🤷🏻‍♂️
