Meteor, it's a sharp color. But... .
You should consider where you live too.
In LA or South Beach the car culture yellow would be great.
In my old conservative upscale neighborhood I could NEVER blaze the side streets in a yellow or other flashy-colored machine. The neighbors would wonder WTF happened to my brain; or did I get yet another divorce? Maybe I went out and bought myself smaller, tighter fitting briefs too, which would go along with my new affair... . Just how this neighborhood would think of a yellow Porsche. If the thing had a WING on it I think they'd call the authorities because something "obviously" has gone very very wrong under my roof (of the house).
Nah, just get what you want. Realize that people react differently in different areas. That's why "conservative" looking stuff is so popular: kinda guarantees a known and safe response from others.

MMD, TRENDS CHANGE FROM TIME TO TIME, in the past white was probably the colour for ladies etc (I didnt really knew that !!! ), BUT NOW MY FRIEND, WHITE COLOUR IS FOR THE "MACHOS" AND THEIR BRAND NEW 997 GT3's!!!!
I think once you see these two pics, you'll proceed and order the beast in WHITE !!!!!

IMO the comparison is so far apart. Speed Yellow will give the car a certain visual character. Meteor grey will give it a totally different exterior character (even though inside, the same ferocious engine beats its rhythm).
If you were comparing Carrara White vs Speed Yellow OR Meteor Grey vs Slate Grey then you might be comparing colours which are IMHO comparable. Do please excuse my frankness [No offence, just trying to give you some meaningful input], but comparing Speed Yellow and Meteor Grey appears to me to be more a question of indecision/confusion on your part as to what the car should visually be for you.
I think you need to sit quietly alone without distraction (preferably close your eyes) and ask yourself what feeling you want the GT3 to create inside you (and possibly those close to you whose opinion matters to you). Ask yourself what mental image first made you want to get the car i.e. the impetus which made you feel you couldn't pass another day without having one....it's the catalyst for the release of that passion that truly matters!
The answer is really inside you...not in some internet poll
Best of luck - hope you find the answer that is right for YOU!
