I'm new to the whole Porsche thing. I had the fortunate opportunity to reserve an allocation for the 911-50 but also am considering the GT3 (either or). But I need your opinions. I'm not crazy about any of the colors being offered for the 911-50. Would you guys/gals pick the 911-50 or GT3? And if the 911-50, then would you get: 1. Geyser grey (lighter). 2. Graphite grey (darker) or 3. Monochrome Black?
If GT3, then what color from the porsche color palate? Sapphire Blue Metallic and Rhodium silver are the new colors being offered.

Choices:

911-50 Geyser Grey

911-50 Graphite Grey

911-50 Monochrome Black

GT3 - What color would you select?

Appreciate all opinions. Thanks.

 

911_50 Graphite Grey!

 

Here are pics of Geyser Grey (lighter) and Graphite Grey (darker). I don't have any pics of the Monochrome Black. The SA says it's between basic black and basalt black.

 

as nice a package the 911_50 is, the GT3, if you don't need a rear seat, is in another league. however it's different kind of sports car for a niche audience. try before you buy.

 

911___
........50

Really tough choice on the colors, would lean towards Geyser Grey.

 

gt3!

 

GT3... No question! The GT3 will out perform, out look, out drive a Carrera based car.

 

GT3 in white. See if you can order it without center lock wheels and with PCCB's.

 

GT3 without a doubt. I'm biased toward red, but there are interesting colors choices available.

 

GT3 all the way! Although the retro wheels on the 911 50 look cool, I am not a big fan of the seats nor the exterior color options. Plus you cant beat the driving excitement from a GT3!

 

I am not a fan of the 50's seats. But like the graphite grey. So gt3

 

It's an awful lot of money to spend for a car (the 50th Anniv. model) that you are not enamored with - unless what you are buying into is the cache of a limited production offering (which there is nothing wrong with at all). If you go with a GT3 or C2S or C2 at least you can find one pretty much with what you want or order it exactly the way you want instead of settling for what PAG decides you should have w/ the 50th Anniv. car.

 

GT3

 

Are you a track guy (from your description doesn't sound like it)? Is this think more about backroad riding agressively or cruising around with the wife/GF? I think how you will use the car will determine. If you're into the track, reco GT3 no question. If you're not going to the track I would sway you away from the GT3. It's going to rattle your teeth out on rough roads and scrape on many driveways. I'd go 991 50th in graphite for street. Or maybe check out a 997 GTS which is also a great choice for the street if you can find one.

this is a nice conundrum to have.

 

GT3 - Red
