I Have some 2048 x 1536 shots of a Fayence yellow CGT taken indoors with a Sony DSC-F828.

Not much

Seriously, ... Fayence and Speed have an identical hue. The only difference I can detect is that Speed is "toned down" by the addidtion of some grey or brown that is missing from Fayence.

Fayence looks like someone washed away the dirt from Speed.

Below is an offical Porsche Fayence yellow paint sample page from the dealer's kit laid on top of a Speed yellow car:

Here's a comparison of Speed and Signal.

The TT is Signal and the GT2 is Speed:

Here's another shot of the Signal TT and Speed GT2 that has a little different white balance. The camera was set to auto-white-balance for all of these shots and sometimes it drifts around depending on what else is in the composition.

Fayence sample page over Signal TT comparison (beware of the white balance and over-saturation on this one -- Signal looks too deeply orange to me):

Here's a Fayence CGT near a Speed (I think) TT that I cribbed from the internet:

Here's a PhotoShop-lightened copy of the Fayence over Signal that looks better (to my eye on my monitor):
