Most common, needs to be paired with the White Gold.

Thank you for this breakdown. How many were ordered Grey with black accents? I don’t see that on your list

I believe that wasn't technically a color option, but DZL package on a Grey Black car.

I can’t say for sure what accent colors were chosen for cars with the Customization Packages so I left them out for the standard colors on the second list I posted.

However, there are only 8 Grey Black .2 RS’s in North America with any of the Customization Packages. So can’t be anymore than 8 Grey Black cars with Black accents, but more likely only a handful in that spec from the factory.

I've looked for production numbers by color for GT3s but haven't found them. Doesn't anybody have that?

I'm surprised there were only 40 GT silver cars delivered to the US. One would think that would be a common color, but it's actually one of the rarest on the GT3.

Agreed.
GT silver is such an awesome color - So complex and really changes depending on the light...

You think that is rare guess how many lapis blue or slate greys there are. I believe there are 4-5 lapis blues which is crazy; I know one of the owners and he said he is going to keep it forever.

SLATE is beautiful, Lapis is ok, better on a Turbo.
