I agree about the white, but maybe with black centers/polished lips for the wheels...

Sign me up for the "tangerine orange"!

It's nice to see some nice things being done with CGT's for a change. I think the only other pics I've seen other than marketing material are pics of wrecks!!

The orange is great. Right up there with silver.

The metallic blue strikes me as a bit boring and reminds me too much of Volvo station wagons.

Even though I've owned enough white cars for a lifetime I do think the CGT wears white really well in the same way the GT1 always looked good in white. The white really brings out the shape of the headlights and air ducts. You can also imagine how good it would look at the track with some numbers on it.

Gulf Blue as always rocks on Porsches.

Silver even though really over done is hard to beat on a CGT.

I saw a white one at the dealer in Houston. Looked great. Cost $13,000 to paint a special color. They had 4 ( white, 2 in silver, and black) on the dealership floor at the time.

There is something rather brave with buying a half a million dollar car and have it delivered in some of those colors.

Not for the sensitive, introvert personality type obviously..

No.. not really... it's a gas station just down the road a bit from the "Ring"...... but everyone stops there..
