Are you happy with your color selection, or if you could (hypothetically) change the color from this day forward, what would it be and why? I'll go first.

I have Meteor and really love it but sometimes I wish I got black, as black no matter the lighting always looks good (except when dirty) and just looks amazing when freshly detailed.
I'll say this though, Meteor hides dirt extremely well and depending on the light, changes shades very nicely and the TT rims go very nicely with this color.

Same here. I have seal grey and think it looks really good, but I wouldn't mind having black after finding out that I actually LIKE hand-washing my car. So my next Porsche will be black.

I have guards red. There is not a chance that I would change that. Most of the other colors just seem far too boring for a this beautiful sports car.

My first Porsche in 1970 was Black. My seventh one in 2005 was Black. It's a sickness. There is no cure.

There should be only 3 colors for a Porsche:

Black, noir, and schwartz

I've thought about Basalt

Ill admit to having second thoughts on my light ivory selection.It cost a lot of money.Having said that i cant think of another color i could live with.My do over would be my interior.I should have gone with natural brown leather instead of sand beige.If hell freezes over and i bite on a turbo cab it will be same color but the darker natural leather.

Points, how much difference is there between light ivory and carrara white?

Love my atlas grey. A spectacular color that changes between blue-black, and a hint of deep purlple at times with the setting sun. I always get compliments on the color. Wouldn't think of anything else.

Significant.Carrera white is a glaring bright white along the lines of glacier white.My color has some creamy tones to it and blends much better with the brown top.I can get a shine on my color that i have yet to see on other white porsches.I remember when i picked it up at the dealer it was parked right next to a carrera white coupe and under floresecent lights the difference was even more dramatic.

Sounds very nice...did you get it @ Braman or Champion?

Went to braman first and was unhappy with the service.drove 30 min south and was blown away by the desire of the staff to cater to my every wish.took 9 months but well worth the wait.if i was forced to have a second choice midnite blue would have been the one.Identical color of my first 356 in 1971.

Interesting. I'm not loving Braman's service dept at the moment

I meant the attitude of the sales staff. Just a hair on the uppity side.When a guy comes to my business looking to spend 6 figures im on him like white on rice.I want that attitude towards me when im looking to spend that kinda money.

Yes I understand. I only deal with the GM now since the GSM left about 5 mos ago and if it wasn't for the GM I'd have gone back to the Collection. I had the displeasure of meeting the owner of Champion some years back and swore I'd never step foot in that place again; that was about 12 years ago and have never been back since.

I really like my current color combination: basalt over terracotta/black, but I'd do it differently only because of the black GT3 seats that are in the car now. I don't like the contrast between the terracotta and the black seats, and because of that, I'd order tangerine exterior, silver calipers, and black interior. Black interior is the only *right* interior for a street/track car, I think.

That said, if this car ever goes back to mostly street use, I'll swap the original seats back in a hearbeat and drive around happy.
