4. If you had to pick rn what would you go with and why?

Response:
1. Shark blue / python green: no longer offered
2. Love blues
3. like unique colors
4. Like that what keeps the budget more in line: yes these are expensive but always have price points trying to stay under (in this case was trying to keep build under 185k), white stays in line with budget and allows to do GTS interior package. RN torn btw white and AG. Really like chalk but seems every car company has chalk and not as "special" as it was 2 years ago. https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PRWCPKD7

Feeling the same way about AG at the moment my sons Civic is Sonic Grey and while I’m sure they look different side by side they appear to look similar…..can’t have that 😂

Ah ok. So this is a can't have first choice/s situation. With that I really cant see how Arctic isn't the clear choice for you vs plain vanilla white.

2. Arctic comes off in a blueish tone most of the time. It will take on a grey tone in shade and at night. It's not monochromatic like nardo grey. This segues to

3. It really is such a unique color. Like a perrywinkle. Every Macan And Cayenne around me is in chalk. It's an awesome color in its own right, but they're everywhere.

4. Yea, staying within budget is though. But it seems like you really want a unique-ish color and I don't think something as important as color should ever be compromised.

GL. It's tough. I know most people including myself have had like four different colors in the configurator.

Maybe if you're a little daring you can always do a liquid wrap. Haha.

I really love Artic Grey. I wasn't sold on it in the show rooms but the wife made an executive decision. I couldn't be more impressed with the color that I even got my motorcycle to match. Also saw a cayenne in AG in the show room. Absolutely gorgeous.

I went Arctic Gray build locked yesterday; the Arctic Gray threads seemed a lot of fun the the white paint threads.... no one is passionate about white / Carrara white paint.

My arctic grey 911 coupe finally arrived and I picked it up yesterday.

PPF, ceramic and 30% tint.

Clear side markers added as soon as I got home.

Well, looks like Arctic Grey has been moved to a PTS color for '25 and on. Pretty short color run, not as short as RSN obviously, but I like Arctic Grey way more than the Slate Grey Neo (too much brown in it) they replaced it with
