Default what color is this?

Anyone know what color this is? It doesn't look white enough to be polar silver and it doesn't look metallic enough to be arctic silver. Maybe the wheels are just throwing me off.

I think that's artic silver but the photo might be somewhat grey'd/ photoshop'd a little more than usual.

It looks a bit like the GT silver, that limited edition 996 colour. It doesn't look yellow enough for arctic to me. Def not polar (no blue hues).

Doesn't quite look Arctic to me. The car (or at least parts of it) have definitely been painted, so it could be just about any silver out there. The colour/contrast does look like it has been edited in the photo though.

1 buck, if I ever get to NJ I'm coming to your garage....

Oh, unless it's PTS it's AS, no doubt. White Balance can screw up precise color rendition very easily.

Y'all are silly. It's obviously gray.
