Re: available colors for new GT3?
ONLY speedyellow!
Just kidding.
I didn't update my infos for a few weeks now, I wrote it down and will try to find an answer to your question soon. As far as I heard, all Porsche colors will be available for the GT3 but I don't know if this will be the case from the start or not.

Re: available colors for new GT3?

Re: available colors for new GT3?
why don't you use the official porsche car configurator, chosse a carrera 2, equip it with the aerokit and then try out all the colors?

Re: available colors for new GT3?
personally, my next car is going to be white (not a GT3, though). i've seen too many black and silver cars and i do not care about the resale value anymore. if you want to sell your car, there's always something the dealer tells you why your car is not that much worth anymore... the color, the missing sunroof, no tiptronic (or no manual -- tick one;) ), blabla...
i think white cars are coming back! and IMO among GT3 drivers white is not such an infamous color anway.
in yellow you would get a lot of attention, on the track no one would miss you in the rear view mirror i suppose
but IMO it's a not such a great color for a porsche, it's a fine color for italian cars (same with red).
btw: one of my favorite porsche colors is "slate grey". it's not in the standard palette, though. nick heidfeld bought a GT2 in this color, note the picture.
cheers; zz

Re: available colors for new GT3?
one week ago, I visited a porsche dealer, looking for a gt3 (360hp) and i compared the colors. I mean for normal cars i hate other colors. White and red I found on each corner in the states, but in switzerland you just see grey black and blue cars.
I think white would be fresh and diffrent from all other standart carreras...

Re: available colors for new GT3?
you are right. During winter time I often drive in the mountains, swissmountains but not with gt3. It's interesting how fast you can change the color from a black c4 (not metallic) into bicolor grey.
Dark colors and also white are always changing in muddy conditions.
But the question was, to find a color for summer time and for the track?

Re: available colors for new GT3?
IMO white is awesome, check this out:
http://www3.porsche.de/german/deu/accessories/exclusive/samples/sportlich3.htm
i wouldn't order a white "ordinary" car like an E class or a 5 series BMW, but with a special car, white is something very special

Re: available colors for new GT3?
I agree, white is stunning, especially with "race-ish" cars like gt3s and gt2s. However, I think they overdid it on this 4s from the exclusive-catalogue... the white seats are (borderline) ok, but the rest of the interior should stay black, IMO. It's neither very practical nor does it look better to have white parts in your cockpit.

Re: available colors for new GT3?
word up, that's what I mean...
this exclusive c4s shows us, how amazing the color white could be. and as written before, I think and I hope that it's a new upcoming color, for unusual cars.
Also the gt2 looks beautiful and you can also see the wings und flaps and airentries more precisely. black is too dark, also for 360 modena, the ferrari looks like a toyota supra or something similar with this dark color. black is good looking for a jeep, range rover or G model, with black leather, or a rs6 or something like that.
I hope now, that it's the right decision to order gt3 white, clubsport with nomex black. the car shows us, that it's built for track, red belts and cage and red fire extinguisher. functional and you can see the details and diffrences from other carreras...or what do others think?

Re: available colors for new GT3?
GT3 looks awesome Partyboy!
Not as mean as the GT2 (with that great front spoiler) but much more purposeful than a standard 996, that's for sure.
The lower ground clearance helps a lot to give aggressivity to the car.
But I still have to get used to that wing though.
Looking forward to see it in real!
Fanch.

Re: available colors for new GT3?
I have a favour to ask: can someone with some computer knowledge paint the pic of the Challenge Stradale black without the stripe in the middle?
TIA
P.S.
I think the GT3 would look awesome in white, esp. the Clubsport version with the cloth seats and red harnesses.
