A share and question post...

Shared, because Ive never seen a GT3 in this colour before and think it looks stunning - had to share. Perfect spec for me as well wink

I was always a white or black box ticker but this has me all gooey at the knees...

Question, is it PTS or standard option?

I think Agate is awful, but each to their own! It's no-cost on regular models I don't know about it on a GT3.

Agate is awesome, but needs black wheels.

Having had a Slate grey Gen 1 997 GT3, I have to agree, Agate is rather a non-colour. Discrete ? sure, but if I wanted discrete I wouldn't have a 991 GT3 ....

I agree it's stunning! I've seen a couple of cars in that colour and loved it.

Agate was standard on 991.1 GT3 - I love it on the 3 , especially with yellow PCCB's smile

agate is quite cool, gt3's are not really pretty cars anyway ,they look aggressive and impressive but far to much aero stuff .Black is the worst colour because it hides all the lines.

Agree. It's that grey with yellow caliper combo that (imo) I think looks a class act.

Really stands out amongst the other colours listed for sale...

Yes, but you're just a picture pinching tart (and given the chance, you'd have red GT3 decals down the sides of this car too) .... smash

I have Agate on my GTS and get lots of compliments on the colour, personally I think it's OK but not great. I don't think it looks very good on a GT3, would much rather something bright and lairy. That said, I saw a picture of a 911R on Twitter at the weekend, Nardo Grey with Yellow stripes. looked rather good.

Here's a couple that will divide opinion - personally I would spec neither, but I love them both
