Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo and Turbo S
Yes, Graphite Grey could look very nice too.
Here is Agate Grey outside in daylight, this photo gives a pretty good glimpse on how this looks in real life.

Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo and Turbo S
Still ugly.
When Ben ordered his Carrera GT in seal grey, I tried to talk him out of it. He refused to change and when the car was delivered there was a look of disappointment on his face. I believe he knew he had made a mistake.
Any shade of grey is not right for a sport car. It may be more suitable for a large luxury car. A modern sport car should be bright, look alive, sexy and generate passion. Grey characteristics do just the opposite.

Thank you guys, so I made the right choice.
Not so sure about the Black/Carrera Red bi-color interior anymore though.
With the greenish tint in the color, the Black/Luxor beige bi-color combo seems to fit better. Or maybe Espresso natural leather...
Oh boy, this ain't easy. I just hope that I'm getting to see some of these combos at the end of the month at the factory.
I don't know what the interior pieces look like, but I think red/black two tone suit grey very well. I tried to find the red/black combination on my 12C, but didn't get the deal I wanted on it. I've always seen lots of grey Ferraris with red/black that look great.

Nick, I live in Bavaria, not in California. You won't see many flashy colors over here, not even on exotic sports cars (just saw a Lamborghini Gallardo and a Ferrari FF yesterday...the Lambo in black, the Ferrari in grey met.) but I've seen a VW Golf Cab in some sort of orange...if you get my point. Different world here.

Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo and Turbo S
RC, White is an absolutely fantastic colour on a 911....besides the Looks it is also easy to maintain.
and it's about the only colour that Looks good with winter mud and dirt.
i have the White exterior and red/black interior combination on both, my c63 and sls...it's a very very nice combination.

Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary... That's what gets you.
Re: OFFICIAL: 991 Turbo and Turbo S
I agree, the white/black&red combo is classic but like I said before, white is not easy to maintain (having experience with my wife's cars and of course the C63 I had) over here. The meteor grey on my Cayenne GTS however is a very good color, it doesn't really get dirty fast (well, actually it does but you cannot see it) and it is perfect if you don't have time to go wash your car every day.

great that the Turbo models don't have the additional light strip that the C4 models do.
They never had this strip.What about 964/993 Turbo?? It wasn't light strip, but it looked closer to 4/4S models.
Well, for these models it should read: they all had this strip.
