My 991 GT3 was in Mexico and it was stunning, hence I have chosen it for the GT4

Mexico is a great colour. Saw a 991 at the PEC in that colour and it looked stunning.

Great choice white my 1st choice, but I own a white Porker already so did not want 2 white cars.

Viper was always my number 1 choice. Riviera a close 2nd.

I'll likely end up with White unless they raise the ban on CTS before my order is locked.

I am going cwm but cannot make my mind upon platinum or silver wheels!

[PorscheGT4]

I would avoid metallic white, you cannot touch it up and it's not that great vs , say perl BMW white etc.

Flat white is the better option if going white on porkers imho.

I don't think silver goes well with white, so I'd opt for platinum wheels. Also, not sure what the white was on the CR/Spyder (you'll know), but if it was flat, I'd stick with that, the colour worked really well.

Agreed on all points.

Flat white is dull and does not look great on the gt4, sapphire blue looks good but i am not a blue car person,jet black looks great and is a safe bet for flippers but not so gt, carmine red doesn't look great in the flesh and can look a bit dark with a hint of maroon,guards red I toyed with but can look washy in some light (photos)so not 100% happy with unless I saw on a gt4 in the flesh but it works well on 997 ,yellow IMHO is a putrid colour on any car and didn't look great on the pec car!
So that left me with cwm which is an interesting colour in different light for a white car and whiter and brighter than flat carrara white

DBM or GT Silver ( a grand more)

[itsybitsy]

What would have been nice would have been the black with silver rims offered with SPYDER/CR which really lift flat colours and not imo the nasty Matt black ones offered which personally I think look cheap and detest

that's interesting. I have an October build. Spoke to dealer yesterday and he says that he has not yet had a build date to know exactly when in October and my spec is also not locked in yet.

Should I be worried??

Not a lover of DBM its a blue again, silver does look nice but again not so sure !
I have looked at a lot of 981 Cayman in the flesh to get an idea because as we know what works on one model doesn't work on another.
Interestingly when I showed my 28 yo son cwm with silver/ platinum wheels he thought the silver wheeled car looked better!

I hope you ordered yellow with polka dots

I have had a build date for months.

I doubt you have a Oct build if the dealer has no date yet.

Found this site which actually shows some of the colours with the codes, not sure it contains all currently available colours though.

The problem I have with flat white (carrara white) is that on the gt4 at the pec it didn't look great but it did have those nasty Matt black wheels which imo didn't help!
Although the spyder worked well in carrara white the Cayman R didn't and as I said before colours work better on different cars and without seeing gt4 in the flesh it's hard to make a choice by other models the only car to go on is the 981 Cayman but that has no rear spoiler or side scoops.For example a 997.2 in white does not look as good as a 997.2 gt3 in white and basalt black is the other way round.

I still have no build date but, the October ones have started updating now (other models) so I expect something within days
I’ll keep you posted

This is the response!
