Poor Rhodium has taken somewhat of a beating in this thread.
Below are some comparison photos I've posted elsewhere of my GT-S Spyder and a buddy's RS Spyder. Both nice colors IMO.
For whatever reason, in the Spyder world Rhodium isn't thought of as an "undesirable" color like it seemingly is in the GT4 world (if this thread is any indication).

OP asked why is former GT4 isn’t selling. Lots of guesses given including color. Fact is that RS had a very low take rate for the GT4 (and the 991.2 GT3, not sure about the Spyder) which would then be expected to impact the resale/desireability in the secondary market. Nothing wrong with the color and no need for folks to get defensive...
Not an expert only owned a dozen or so P cars over my adult life. My guess is like the stock market and housing we are close to a top in P car values. Too many cars too many flippers and not enough enthusist to keep it flying high. Combined this with continuing new car entries from Porsche and the rediculess cost of parts for these cars a great rotation is occuring and prices for all but truly collectible P cars have topped.
Very possible.
ie.) The stock market is hitting the highest bullish sentiment levels seen since '87.
When the music stops..... where's your chair?
There are 76 GT4's on Cars.com right now, and pricing is all over the place. A lot of guys own them at the "old" money and think they can still get out relatively unscathed, but that's not happening. They were due, overdue, for a price adjustment, and I think we're seeing it happen right now. Loaded, PTS, and super-low mile cars will still bring all the money, but if you have a 5k car with average equipment and a common color I would expect to find a buyer at $10k back of MSRP today. I think they're going to hold pretty strong from that point, as there's not much in that price point that's special and has the whole package that the GT4 has. There are a lot of potential buyers sitting on the sidelines and watching the market, probably spooked by the wide range of pricing for seemingly similar cars. As soon as things settle down and sellers accept the true market I think we'll see a lot of these cars find new homes.
