Ok, so a 997 GT3 in yellow's not your thing ...

Well that's a "needy" post if I've ever seen one - been a busy one today !

OK - I'd take the yellow in a heartbeat - I assume it's Speed - so much nicer than Racing (nearly as nice as Signal)

Re decals - I realise I may live to regret this post as I know you'll casually find it agin in X months time and re post it : but I think decals are an RS thing - always look a bit too try hard on a 3 - however I reserve the right to change my mind if I get. 991.2 GT3 (manual) and the disease takes hold of me !

Still think Agate looks cool though - a modern Steve MqQueen slate IMHO smile

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

There is no proof or either of these two things - I don't want to get all litigious with you but if you keep making these statements I may have to see you in court .

BTW - please can you email me a copy of that Super Mario image so I can post it as my own !

Also where are my racing gloves ? smile

Is that Voodoo blue? Was doing some googling last night and came across a few cars in that colour.

Looks stunning...

Colours are personal, so no right or wrong.

Sometimes the vivid colours look good, but can also shout 'look at me', so a lot of people prefer the subtle colours.

However, not a fan of Agate on the GT3 - looks a bit heavy.

Do love the Mexico and Riviera Blue, but Agate with Black Wheels and Yellow calipers looks epic. Saw a GT4 in Agate and black wheels look great.

Agate GT3 sell the quickest from OPC. That brown GT3 RS is stunning in real life.

Are riviera and mexico metallic?

I ask because i saw a GT4 in (i think) Mexico Blue on a normal British day and came away very underwhelmed. It looks great in a perfect shot created for Instagram, but it just did nothing for me in the flesh; it just looked cheap, like a British Gas van.

With respect, i've also met a few GT3 and RS owners who have stepped out of their pretty lairy coloured cars sporting a beer belly and bald head - not exactly a good look. Sometimes i think perhaps people should get approval from their kids before speccing a colour!

Agate was standard on 991.1 GT3 - I love it on the 3 , especially with yellow PCCB's smile
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...
You should know full well what a 991 in Agate looks like....only JC's has red calipers...
It's a classy colour IMO, better with a lighter interior...

Can't make my mind up with the bold stuff.
Yellows and Oranges are ok, but the blues look weirdly cheap looking to me, probably a minority view, whatever. The Germans love their base bright stuff.

I think I'd go white, with coloured wheels and decals....

Looks awesome, I was at my OPC and they had one Agate/Black..red calipers, buckets, clubsport, red stitching......temptation was alot.

Good choice, if I get one its a tough choice, always wanted a Porsche in Riviera........
