Roger I agree with Cway. BLACK? If I was going to paint to sample, I would put a TON of thought into it and it would be something cool and funky. Gulf blue then vinyl wrap the stickers. thats just off the top of my head, but for $5K you BETTER do something KEWL!!!! IRIS blue. I dont know ruby red. Something.

I was told by the representative from Porsche Customer Consultation (Exclusive & Tequipment) that the rights to Gulf Blue are owned by Gulf Oil. He said they had given approval for a Carrera GT in that color but that it is no longer possible and would not be possible as a paint to sample color.

Jellybean palate is your friend:
Speed/Ferrari yellow
Maritime/Mexico/Turquoise/Riviera blue
Viper/Signal Green
Orange
Guards Red
And if you're feeling really ballsy, Rubystone Red
Metallics like Basalt black, Midnight blue, Vesuvius, Granite Green etc. might look great, exotic even, but a bit out of place on a track toy and probably more suitable on something like a TT.

On the cup the trim looks silver and the color looks to be a blueish gray. At least on my screen it doesn't even look close when compared side by side...

Even the White Gold on the Blue RS from the UK launch looks different photo to photo - more silver in some photos vs gold in others. This is why, as others have highlighted, you can't trust photos on the web to give a true representation.
Keep you posted if I get a confirm.

There seems to be two color combos. See clip at 2:23:
