Ruby + yellow. Personal taste but yellow + green didn't work on the 73 RS IMO and I'm not sure it works here either.

Rubystar with yellow belts is the build I went with. Should be killer! I vote that

I just looked up the 73 RS, I get your point there...

I vote this as well! I'm doing gentian blue, but I want more Ruby T's in the world in case I need to pick one up pre-owned later on 😂

Looks like Carmine Red will be very rare on the T. Anyone with a Carmine T want to post their build?

I am currently waffling between Guards Red and Shark Blue. If PG was still available at $3270 that would have been my first choice,

Hmm… out of the two, Shark Blue. Though in the back of my mind I know Porsche will never cancel Guards Red.

these were my final two color choices too. I went to the dealership so many times to look at both, and I generally like blue so wanted something blue. couldn't do Gentian, too dark and purple. Ultimately chose Guards Red in part b/c saw so many other cars (VW, Mustang, Japanese cars) on the street with similar blues and they all looked too comical to me... talked to bunch of dealers, all of whom said same, SB is a fad and won't last.

So until Monday I need to decide on my build. Everything is pretty clear - except the color. It's a non-PTS-slot.

Since people only choose shades of grey around here, I haven't seen all colours in person. Here are my opinions though:

All shades of grey: nice and boring, extremely common.
Guards red: doesn't fit the the Agathe grey metallic in my opinion.
Yellow: really not my colour except I had a 993 Carrera RS. That old yellow also is nicer I believe, softer - however I've never seen the new one in person.
Gentian and Carmine: too muted for a T and Carmine is expensive besides.
Ruby: can't pull it off. Maybe I can in 20 years but not yet. Expensive.
Shark: also not an ideal match to the Agathe metallic but a bit better. It's not dark, it's not light.. not sure if I liked it in a couple of years still. Expensive.

Python would have been just perfect. So. I've ordered a Carrera T but don't really like any of the colours currently available. I'm not a big fan of wrapping, especially not on a T with it's own decals and that would cost me around 5k here anyway, so no.

What to do now? First world problems, I know.

As a Gentian T owner, the yellow ones are catching my eyes the most when I look at pictures of other Ts. Of course like you I have not seen it in person ever so hard to know for sure. I think shark also looks nice but if you can pull it off I think you could also pull off ruby.
