That dark sea blue 4.0 is gorgeous. Saw pics of it a few weeks ago and fell in love with that color.

And here's another pic of the same car sitting in prime parking at Werk 1 with a different plate (S GT), this time from Pinterest.

Below it, what I've always suspected was the inspiration for this RS 4.0—and look how those Speed Yellow calipers clash with the orange wheels. Now imagine gray calipers...

How appropriate that your post begins page 111 of this thread, one of Zwart's race numbers.

Yep, Dark Sea Blue is one of my favorite Porsche colors of all time, alongside Irish, Brewster, and Slate Gray (both 1960s and the 1990s metallic). Always thought a Carrera GT in Sunoco Blue or Dark Sea Blue would have been the one—with yellow calipers and red stitching, of course. I like subtle nods...

Check out the license plate... There is no way that is a private vehicle, BB Gt3 991...also, if you zoom in, that's Matthias Mueller driving ;-)

I'm debating whether to paint the wheels on my gt silver Spyder in red also, maybe even the little rear spoiler in red.. Even though it's not a GT car, I love that color scheme with the red wheels so much.

Someone with a gt silver GT4 should definitely replicate this!!!

Merry Christmas from Germany as well.


After this caliper "excursion" back to Spyder topics.
Has anyone of you ordered carbon door sills?

I don't get the point of remotely changing your exhaust from your phone. I will be in the drivers seat and would rather use the factory button which is easier. What's the advantage of this? Am I missing something?

Me either re the phone, my reason for posting was just the sound, it's an armytrix exhaust system fitted to a Spyder.
