Default Cream white 997.2 rs sighting

Saw a cream white 997.2 rs today on the cross county parkway in ny just north of the city around 2:15pm. Anyone here?

Interesting pts color combo and looked good! No graphics or anything just silver wheels and looked like a riser for the wing.

Any chance it was yellowed PPF? I once saw a "cream" CGT but found out it was white with an old full PPF!

I think the color is Chiffon (which was my 1st 911SC) - love it

Yeah it was quite interesting. I was traveling other direction and I was like "what is that?"

Oh, it's my car with a different paintjob!

Very unique.

Jeremy I hear ya! Pretty sure this was that chiffon color or something similar. So cool to see a pts car on the road that hasn't been over exposed all over the internet.

The three remaining white CGTs in the US are Biarritz White which has a lot of yellow in it. My former CGT is Grand Prix White which is a much purer white and the reason it was spec'd that way. BTW there is a cream white RS and it is awesome. Chiffon is a good guess but that's not it. I forgot precisely which color but I can get it if anyone is interested. JBO

The white CGT that looked cream (I was told because of old PPF) was in Houston.

Yep. All three remaining white CGTs were east of the Mississippi last I checked. Mine was the only white CGT at west coast events. I shouldn't have said it wasn't the film that made the other look yellow. Mine also had a full clear film job including all carbon surfaces on the interior. An interesting side note is one off the three has what my research suggests to be the highest MSRP of any CGT built. I saw it at Sebring. I assume it was bought at Champion or Brumos. I could never identify the owner but I'd sure like to own it. Best Josh
