Riviera any day of the week. Mexico is lovely too. Miami is not doing it for me
Miami is too washed out/pale. Looks rather "cheap" as a result.
Not if you add Gulf livery to it biggrin
Well if you're 17 it maybe cool, otherwise it's for racecars only .....



As for the previous comments about Voodoo, Mexico etc yes



Miami centre, Riviera left, Mexico right.
I am a small boy and like it on an RS track car

As a mere observer, I think the colour options for the new GT3 are pretty extensive, and there isn't a colour on the list that wouldn't suit the GT3. You'd need to be pretty pedantic to need PTS.

What people go for is a personal choice; GT Silver does look very good, and safe, and the bolder colours will always suit the GT cars. Racing Yellow does suit the latest GTs, especially the GT4, and Guards Red seems to be making a resurgance - as White did with the original 997 GT3.

I think lucky buyers are spoilt for choice.

How different is Crayon from Fashion Grey? Anyone with any pics to share?

Good find! Looks a little different to the Graphite I have seen in the flesh on a C2S but probably just the lighting..

Crayon disappointing, just pretty flat and boring, not the modern edge I expected. Graphite Blue however looks fantastic!!

Crayon looks better when you see it on a car, but to me it is understated and I want to shout out loud GT3 in a standout colour biggrin

For me Yellow, Carrera White Metallic or Guards Red

With all these new colours you need to see them in the flesh. Pics lie. If Guards red looked as good as it does in the brochure then that would be my first choice. Carmine is a fantastic shade of red (IMO) but £2500. I'm black met with silver wheels and PCCB's.

Not sure about Crayon and I love Fashion or Sports Classic Grey. Wouldn't order without seeing a car in it.

Production starts in July for PDK cars so maybe PEC will have cars shortly after that but Manual production doesn't start until Sep. That said press are getting their hands on cars late April according to Mr Catchpole.

Who cares what it looks like in flesh, as long as my car looks good in photos on pistonheads ☺

Imo it has to be either the standard brushed aluminium (which looks cheap imo but would match the GT silver) or carbon, which is good value.

The anthracite also looks a touch grim imo, but because of the light external colour it should be ok. Its expensive too.

Its one of those finishes you really need to see on an actual car before speccing.
