Default Targa color help

Hi guys, I’ve had a very hard time deciding but think I’ve narrowed it down to 2 colors. I’ll be getting the next GTS or 4s(unsure) allocation at my local dealer. I have a CWM Taycan GTS, so didn’t want to to go white again. Arctic Grey and Chalk I threw out after long debate. So, I can definitely live with either of these. I originally thought, Gentian B was a bit 90’s and a bit to purple but it’s definitely a beautiful color in general and think maybe a bit more timeless than chalk or arctic grey. Of course color is very subjective, but would like to hear thoughts on GB vs Ice G(black tops)

Maybe if I hadn't seen so many Teslas with blue/white.

Here's my preference between the two colors you've chosen, wheels included. Those RS Spyder wheels are too busy for me and look hard to clean.

I was kind of in the same spot as you a few months ago. I liked Gentian, but I also wanted the Black/Bordeaux interior. For me in the end it was between GT Silver and Arctic Grey. I ended up going with Arctic Grey.

Don’t know where my car is right now but silver is for me.

I went with Gentian Blue and a Black/Tan interior for my Targa 4S and couldn't be happier.

It comes down to whether you're a blue person or a silverish person. Both color combos look great. Bordeaux goes well with Gentian too. I've seen one in person and it works. At least it does for me but I'm also someone who ordered a Macan in Sapphire blue over Garnett red/black. I like contrasting and complimentary colors which both of those builds fit the bill on.
