Can't decide on color

OMG, white just owns the other colors. Red and SY are nice, but for the life of me, I can't imagine why anyone would paint this car silver, all respect intended. I point out, I've had an arctic TT and currently own an arctic 997S Cab. And the greys, this isn't an Audi.
White is just the over the top on the GT3. Admit, cobolt is not bad but in fourth place.

What a great thread! All these colors show off the GT3 in many different ways.
Agreed, white looks great but I think Cobalt edges it out by a small margin. In my view;
1. Cobalt, but only with the yellow calipers of the PCCBs otherwise it's white all the way.
2. White, if only for it's sheer understated "I'll ruin you" attitude.
3. Slate/Meteor/Atlas gray, all classy colours
4. Speed yellow, the "look at me" factor is high but the car warrants it.
5. Guards red, similar to #4 but not quite.
6. GT Silver, if it has to be silver, it's gotta be GT silver.

WOW!!! Any color looks great with this car. But if I was to drive it every day, white would be my choice. Was the first time and will be the second time. Only personal preference counts here.

This thread question is like saying, "Which supermodel do you prefer". 
Well.... ummmm... all of them. Not to get Dr. Phil on everyone, but they're all good looking on this car. It's the car that is great!!! But we can only have one and the color probably comes down to your personality. I'm a silver guy too. Understated, with a bit of all business and stealthy. GT Silver would be my preference. I could never see myself in a white GT3.
I used to have a Laguna Seca Blue M3. I was never comfortable with the "look at me" color, just my personality.
I do like the Cobalt Blue with yellow calipers... nice combo.

I own both an Artic Silver and GT Silver and if cost is no object, get the GT Silver. It looks more elegant and great with the Cocoa interior. GT is just a darker silver, more brown in it and is closer to grey.

GT silver has a rich glow to it...I'd definitely pop for it again...less washed out than arctic. Saw my first 997 Turbo on the street yesterday, in GT silver also.
