991.2 GT3 - Colours. Spec. Q+A. etc etc..

[Fokker]

Yes I agree. PCCB's are for me too but rightly so, they are bloody expensive.

It looks to be trying too hard, as far as i'm concerned.

Looks stunning. Is it crayon or are my iPad colours not too good?

Yep, that's Crayon.

It's very similar to Sport Classic Grey

Romans just took a SC GT3 TS in

Someone on Twiiter reckons it's Mr Hammonds and judging by this pick it is...both have a red roll cage.

Ah, I thought you'd taken the pics yourself

[Fokker]

Yes looks like GT silver. Not too sure the silver wheels go though. Platinum or black with GT silver would be my preference.
Needs a bit of attitude.

Platinum is on my spec, have silver on my existing 991 and they do not look aggressive enough

That's very useful thanks for posting....although what I'd really like to see is Chalk vs Sport Classic or Grigio Campovolo. I am going to the PEC next month (sadly not to drive a GT3!) so will try and get into their Porsche Exclusive section to look at the paint samples. We've got a PTS Boxster on order for Mrs Cheib so I have a valid excuse

Personally I'm disliking Crayon - looks too light/beige to me. Fashion is a tried and tested colour which looks good.. again IMO. I need to see Crayon in the flesh.

Here's a vid of a Pan in Crayon.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zzIXQs7RUiQ

I am very unsure about Crayon too...though I really like Sport Classic Grey and Grigio Campovolo which is why I'd like to see the comparison.

Although by the time I have to (hopefully) lock an order down there will have been cars delivered so might even have had a chance to see a couple of GT3's in the metal.

I've been around this whole Crayon vs. PTS Greys thing myself for my incoming GTS cabriolet and I've reached the same conclusion that Crayon is a bit of a "nothing" beige which might be consistent with a general trend for off-white cars (e.g. Minis) but really isn't for a Porsche GT car. Fashion Grey and Sports Classic have the history, but yesterday evening I went to see the Sports Classic Grey GT3RS (allegedly belonging to Richard Hammond) parked up at Romans International in Banstead, Surrey. IMHO it is one of those colours which contrasts well with the black bits on a GT car, and looks great at first glance, but after a few minutes looks a bit bland. Perhaps its just because my wife chose that colour for our kitchen units?! But it is parked side by side with a Lava Orange GT3RS and I know which one I would have chosen. There's a Sports Classic Grey 911 Special edition currently residing (as of 2 weeks ago) in the Exclusive area at the PEC, but the colour wall has no additional colours versus those in the OPC, and certainly not crayon or any PTS Greys unfortunately. Search on Porsche PTS Chalk and there's plenty of pictures of Panamera in Crayon.
