I have seen two GT3s so far, one meteor and one white. I'd take meteor.

I originally ordered my Feb build GT3 in Meteor but changed to white after seeing the color in person and seeing a couple of new GT3's in white. I just think the GT3 looks more agressive in white and I'm thinking a bit about resale value down the road.

Also got talked into adding PCCB's and yellow seat belts (thanks Colm!) Interior is Natural Grey. Hope to have it by the end of March.

Thanks for the pics.
Atlas is appealing. Meteor is putting up a good fight though.
White still has the most appeal but it's in the "BTDT" bin.

This is the best angle I've seen on a 997; and the second pic makes me think I'm comfortable with not being the only person to have an Atlas with black wheels.

Still contemplating.

My Meteor Grey GT-3 went on the boat two days ago--hope for delivery first week of February. This will be my daily driver. Now, I just need to sell my Black 2005 997S.

Can't wait for the new ride.

I've seen plenty of Atlas Gray, and that doesn't look Atlas to me.

Atlas is more of a gray-blue-green, that changes too much with sun light. I don't like it.

So what colour do you think that is?

I am sure it is not Meteor grey.

Do you know the owner?

Thanks.

i do not know the owner. Found those pics posted on the forums somewhere.

My friend has an atlas 997S though and it looks just like that in the same light.
Just my guess

I think this GT3 is Meteor, but I could be wrong.

Photos can be deceptive, but that looks darker than Meteor.

It's Meteor (IMO), Slate or Atlas wouldn't be as light in the bottom picture. You can even pick up on the green hues!
