Default Porsche Dealership Showroom Paint Colors?

Okay, so maybe a bit of an esoteric question... I am building a custom home with my dream garage (pretty modest I'm sure by most people's standards), and I am going for a Porsche design scheme (of course). Some of the details are down the road, but the painters want to start in the garage now as they have some extra time, and I'm wondering what shade of gray (Benjamin Moore) is the closest to the typical dealership color.

I feel like BM Sidewalk Gray might be the one, 2133-60, but would appreciate input from the gang. Thanks

Best to ask the dealership or minimally take a bunch of swatches and match it up yourself. Can admire a few cars while you are there.

Have you considered booking a test drive and bringing some paint chips?

If you want an exact match, you could get a sales associate to sneak you a chip from an inconspicuous spot of drywall; or do it yourself if you’re really determined.

Personally, I’d paint it Carrera white with some Martini racing stripes.

Very nice! I am about to do the same and never considered taking it up to the next level as you have. I know think I may have to kick it up a notch ......
