Thanks for these pictures. . .I placed an order for a graphite blue C4 last week. Only have a little time before the build locks and the only thing I'm considering changing are the wheels. I went with the Classics, but see none of you did. Something about the straight lines is appealing to me. . .

Classics work well, I considered them too. Here are a few pics I found on Google when doing my build.

Thanks Tom, those pictures confirm to me I will go with my first gut reaction. Looks like 3 different colors there in those pics.

You are right, it does. But I'm pretty sure they are all Graphite Blue.

Planning to order 718 Boxster in GB. Haven't decided on the interior, but considering tan - maybe grey. Unsure presently... Also, forgot to mentioned, a blue top. What's your thoughts? Regards

Sorry guys, changed to a PTS color. To many options just drove me crazy.

The car has some matching painted interior parts and sometimes they don’t match exactly with the exterior color due to lighting.

Awesome color combo. Wheels are sick no change needed.

I built the same car with the same color with the same wheels. Printed out the same images and have them on my desk as a reminder for my next Porsche.

So yeah, nice combo.

Not really the best pictures but here's my C4S in Graphite Blue. I was originally planning on getting a slightly used 911 but once I saw this color, I decided to just buy new.
