As a GT silver P car owner, I think the hue is very difficult to properly capture on film as it changes so much depending on lighting conditions. It is; however, very different than rhodium in real life

I loved my Seal Grey car as it had various shades and tints to it at times. I swear I saw yellow and purple hues in it after a fresh wash.

I think GT is beautiful and I would have been happy with it, but its another one of those things where I don't want to tell myself I spent over $3k to get a silver.

Thanks Arena, that's some good therapy. Guess I'll just have to suffer with this color

How did the interior end up on this one? Anything special? The wart is bothersome and I'm so glad I spent $3000 to not get this

My customer that was picking up his white one had a moment, starting that the GT Silver, where he was seriously questioning his decision on color...

The interior on this one was standard black/alcantara.

What do you mean spend $3000 NOT to get the satellite antenna?

I think GT is great, but I did Rhodium because of how much I loved Polar Silver on 993s. Plus silver (in just about any shade) really brings out the curves, wings, vents, etc. in the GT cars. I can't wait!!

All my RS were white and I made them all black inside.
Except 4.0 that was too far gone, all whorehouse red inside..

I had enough of white, can't do GTSilver, don't like milky Salmon...
PTS "We don't know when we will be able to tell you how long the wait will be, figure about 6 months"...
So Purple it is.
Orange stitching only. The rest all black.
Cost the same as white stitching that my Dodge truck and every other car now has...

"Matte aluminum" wheels and uprights because I think they are too beautiful to hide in black paint and that color is exclusive to purple.
