1973 RS, White

What was the most common white on RSs?
Grand Prix white is a little bit ivory?
Thanks

In Peter Morgans 'Original Porsche 911' book, he cites that Light Yellow was actually the most popular colour for the RS - odd because I would have thought Grand Prix White would have taken the cake.

Actually - I just did a quick count and it looks like GP with some colour stripe was the most popular colour done.

I think in the Original Porsche book, they looked at GP White w/ Red, GP White w/ Blue and GP White w/ Green as individual selections - together though, they account for about just over 25% of production, with light yellow coming in at about 18%
