GT4 Colour - what did you actually choose?

[m33ufo]

There's already an excellent GT4 colours thread started by Phooey, but I want to know what buyers have actually chosen? So please only submit if you're in that position.

My OPC wants my choice today after being advised I had been allocated a car last Thursday - I'm feeling under pressure!!

This would have been easy, Viper Green was always my choice. Unfortunately it seems that option was removed the day before my allocation was confirmed!

What I'd like in your response is:

1.Body colour (white, black, guards red, racing yellow, jet black, carrara white....etc)

2.Wheel colour

3.Interior trim (brushed aluminium, painted, leather, carbon...etc)

4.Stitching

5.Belts



Leather and LWB's are a given on my car. I'm currently white or black (metallic or solid to be decided), black or platinum wheels (to be decided), with carbon or painted trim, silver belts, platinum stitching. Very undecided and could just as easily go racing yellow or guards red with the matching interiors!!

For those in a similar predicament - good luck!

yes, but this thread is just about colours I thought.

Indeed good point im just too enthusiastic about those stunning PCCB's

Just the basics are fine (as outlined in the original post). I'd like to keep conversation beyond this to a minimum - ta

PS thanks to all those who have submitted so far.

QUESTION: do the door pulls form part of the belt option or the stitching option? I'd actually like silver/grey belts but won't bother if it means I'll still have black door pulls.

[m33ufo]

That's a shame. I had silver belts and door pulls on a 987 Spyder which looked really good ( I thought!).

Ok...this is me:

1. Carrara White (black wing supports)

2. Satin Black wheels (red calipers)

3. Carbon trim (dash / doors / console)

4. Platinum stitching

5. Black belts


I've asked my dealer to confirm that custom colour is a definite NO. If there's any hope of a change I'll be going Viper Green with Satin Black wheels

Thanks for the input.

PTS order just gone in so fingers crossed.... Might choice acid green?

Acid Green....we need a pic?

Don't forget wheel colour, interior trim, stitching, belts etc?

Love it. Good luck.

Wonder what Ultra Violet would look like on a GT4 - with silver wheels and wing support?

I've ordered Light Green 253 on my GT4. I had to lock the colour in last week

Awesome choice.

What wheel finish, interior trim etc are you going for?



I'm Viper 255 and going with Silver wheels / wing support. Trying to get PTS painted interior trim but so far no joy. Will probably go with carbon.

Well, after just announcing my Viper order I am going to have to recant!

Placed the order at OPC on Tuesday. Was accepted by Porsche Germany (I have a written order), and ten minutes ago it was cancelled. Now back to the drawing board on colour choice.

Hopefully should tie together nicely. Fancied the yellow band on the steering wheel but not sure

Should look good. I'd personally not go with the yellow band.

how come they've cancelled PTS. Over subscription ???

It had been removed from the online configurator last week but when I gave my spec to my dealer on Tuesday his system allowed it - subject to delay (which I was happy with). We both signed off on the order.

It was subsequently cancelled this morning. No real explanation.

I might just substitute the CS pack for the PTS option and go with Carrara.

Mines going through at the moment too, got everything crossed they accept PTS. How long ago was it they wrote a confirmation ?

So is it back to just the std colours ?

My PTS order was accepted on the dealer system Tuesday. Cancelled this morning.

Could have had CD-R + to get sound pack and digital radio for £1k

It's purely a fun / weekend car. Not at all interested in the radio or sound system. I'll be enjoying the exhaust note

lovely

I think a few extra leather bits make a big difference to the feel of the car.

Saw my first GT4 at OPC this morning. It was a CS pack car with Sport Chrono. I'd have preferred to see the leather
