Thank you Unotaz and jo_ker. I asked "Porsche Exclusive" if I can "CXX" my brake calipers and they said no. Since I was not able to get a "Special Color" I felt I had to make do with base White or GT Silver exterior color. Opted to get White and have the exterior stripes in Yellow. I requested the exterior stripes to match the brake calipers which according to "Porsche Exclusive", they will. The color of the brake calipers is "Cadmium Yellow." When my car came I can see clearly the 3M yellow color does not perfectly match the Cadmium Yellow caliper color. The Cadmium Yellow brake calipers are darker in shade than the Yellow 3M stripes.

Nevertheless from afar it looks okay. Extremely happy with my 911R. It is everything I wanted outside of my GT3RS.

Looks great! Porsche Exchange posted a video of yours when it landed. Thanks for the color confirmation of the calipers as well. My assumption before your confirmation was that the PCCB calipers were painted Speed Yellow.

More pics are always welcomed!

Sport Classic Grey, yes. Since that one is based in Atlanta as well, I assume that's the one.
