Default Exterior & Interior Color Data - Update

For your enjoyment.




Based on my data base (by VIN) the following percentage listing is an excellent estimate of the color distribution of the entire North America Specification 2004-2005 GT3 fleet. (I don't have data for every car built and Porsche AG doesn't provide it.)

Percentages
2004 ---- 2005 --- Exterior Color

28.9 ------ 22.1 --- silver
20.6 ------ 26.7 --- black

16.6 ------- 10.7 --- yellow
11.7 ------ 12..2 --- red
8.9 ------- 13.0 --- white
8.5 ------- 12.2 --- grey
4.7 -------- 3.1 --- blue
0.2 -------- 0.0 --- green

I had no idea Lapis blue was so rare! I'm glad I wrapped it. Oh, forgot that it's a complete track rat and will never go back to stock!

my C2 is Lapis Blue - I love that color (I'm also a big fan of Seal Grey)

Interesting, I have one of nine Atlas Grey colored '04 GT3s? (Based on the data so far).

Default Couldn't Help Myself...

If I see data, I have to put it into EXCEL and sort it...makes me feel better at the end of the day.

Speed Yellow is very popular...I love that color. If the gods are good, I'll have my mitts on one in the next 30 days. I get to drive the car today....oh Lawdy!!!

That's pretty cool especially with what looks like natural brown interior.

good find, thanks for posting. Certainly unique on a 996 GT3 but I have to agree that its not the best suited colour. More classic colours seem to suit the 996 better. Our 930 is Minerva and it looks fantastic on the oldschool car IMO

Do you happen to have the same info for the 996 GT2'S?

Thank you.
