Absolutely right. Had my GW next to a GP and the GP looked flat. Not that I would be prejudice.

GP White is an off-white, while GW is really WHITE. I have had one of each, and side-by-side they are not even close to the same. GP White was a stock color through '96, GW for '97-'98, although there were a lot of special orders in either.

I saw Bob's C2S this week at the NNJR DE and definitely saw the blue in the white. It's subtle. The GP white is a much more neutral tone.

Hmm - a 'white' 993. Absolutely the best.
I am toying, just toying w/ the idea of moving to the dark side. I have been considering a white 997 GT3. What other color, realy....
So I may be putting my bone stock - 993 C2S Andial 3.8 w/ a turbo 'S' look up for sale.
The key word in thte sentence above is 'may'....

Cool A Grand Prix White 993?

Is there any other color? It is the Porsche racing color, or at least it used to be when Porsche was racing.

"Glacier White is one of the best looking colors in our cars"
What a bunch of nonsense! EVERYONE knows that besides just plain looking better Grand Prix White cars are FASTER!

You find that White 993 yet??

Don't give in get the color you want!

Remember all other colors are KAPUT!

Remarkable.
If you pay a little more, you can get one that's been painted
