I think yellow is the best color but that and red seem to yell "look at me" a little too loud for my tastes these days and dark colors are too hard to keep looking clean. So I settled for boring old Arctic Silver and I am quite happy with it, actually it's hard to imagine a GT-3 looking bad in any color.

Any color but Atlas Grey...sorry Cos. I like offbeat colors (my last 996 was Wimbledon Green, which you have to see in person to appreciate), but Atlas Grey really turns me off.

Seal Grey is probably the nicest color I've seen.

If memory serves correct, I didn't like the way it was optioned. Also, my M3 is Steel Grey (virtually the same) and I wanted some variety. Opted for AS instead, which I'm very happy with.

Holger,

How can you NOT like Atlas, it is the best of both worlds. To me it looks green/blue and grey at the same time.

Cos, I'm admittedly not the best judge in this area as I've suffered some mild color blindness over the years. I've seen of few Atlas cars (including a GT3) and I saw hues of purple and brown that just weren't flattering, plus it's too dark for my taste.

If they all came that color, I'd still have one...

They're all nice colours, but for me it has to be yellow (white, red or gellybean blue), else it kinda starts looking like a C2 with bodykit, wheels & suspension - NOJMO.

Although the blue of GTGTGT is pretty impressive but not as fast as SY

I'd order mine in Signal Orange. Black interior with orange stiching
