What is this color?

Hi all, first time post. I am dying to know the color of this RS. Does anyone have any info about this car or its color? I love the creamy rich grey with a slight dolphin blueish tint



Here it is from the rear. I much prefer the dolphin blue hue accent as captured in the first photo

I owned a 2006 997 4S Slate Grey and was much different than this color. Mine was a metallic though. I have been told on another forum that this is RAL 7046. I think it could be RAL 7040, but its all in the lighting anyway.

Ok, i saw a thread in rennlist that discussed this car. It looks like someone did what I did and inquired here. Thank u for pointing out that this is a duplicate thread. Still no resolution on color though. The best match I have seen is RAL 7040 window Grey. Not quite it though.

Welcome, by the way.

Your thread is not a duplicate. Somebody else just asked the same question a while back. I was trying to just get you more data.

That second car in the rennlist link from 2stroke looks real close.

Didn't the Audi TT have a color close to this?

Yes, that Audi TT Aviator Grey is pretty close. I would love to go see one in personal see if its right for me. It's slightly bluer but just as creamy.

These daylight shots might help. I'm pretty sure a friend in Germany knows the shop that built this - I'll see if he can get the colour code.
