Fair play to the op posting the car on here looks great.
I'm sure black looks better in the flesh and it's the obviious flipper colour.

Thinking carmine or Mexico , anyone else thinking the same ?
Interested to know why you think black is the "obvious flipper colour"?

I'd have thought white would be a better choice (as black puts many off as it's a PITA and doesn't highlight the GT4 details like the front bumper vent).

blacks the worse flipper colour imo, you cannot sell a Spyder or R very easy in black.

You buy black to hide the lines and love polishing, great when clean, but that's for 10 minutes only ;-(

even in summer the cars get pollen and dusty covered.

I have had 5 or 6 black cars, but never again , I do mean never what ever the deal, it takes a while to get over black and I did love it once apon a time.

Dark colours don't look good on the GT4 imho and it's only that black and DMB have to be the 2 worst standard colours to flip the car for max money.

I would do Adgate at a push but dark + GT4 no thanks.

Interesting. Always thought black being a very popular colour generally speaking would appeal more to the masses. Maybe not then

Yes yellow calipers (painted though not PCCB) and platinum wheels - the finish of the blacks don't do it for me and if I fancy a change can get a local company to change them to more of a gloss black for the same amount as specing the option.

Good luck with the colour dilemma ... my Mexico order went in the morning CTS went on the configuration as mind was already made up.
Whats the cost of the CTS?

I'm a fan of white cars and that's normally all I buy but can you explain why you think white is the best 'flipper' colour in the gt4?

Is it just me? But that GT4 front end reminds me a bit of a Ford Puma...

Yes. I don't think the GT4 looks best in dark colours (Black, Grey, dark Blue) and is better in colours which contrast the black trim detail.

Yellow, Red, Blue are quite polarising and Silver a little safe. I think white worked on the previous 987 Cayman R/ Spyder and GT3, so the motorsport heritage works on the next GT car, the GT4.

However, if I was choosing a GT4 I think it would have to be yellow, as it looks stunning and was the launch colour!
