I'm warming up to ordering a 992.2 and playing with colors... Thoughts on these?


Guards Red -- I'm just a sucker for this color...


Love Signal Yellow, but could I live with it....?


Amethyst has always been on my short list. Maybe less flashy than the ones above?


Superior Red Metallic looks almost like Amethyst here, but is much more subtle in real life. You could mistake it for black in some light.

I personally love signal yellow with the semi-matching calipers!

My "take the plunge" comment to you apparently might be sooner than thought...

Out of the four you have presented so far, Signal Yellow. And if for some reason you can't live with it, well no worries as I'll give it shelter and safe keeping.

I kinda like the Amethyst of the options you presented. Guards Red is a classic and really can't go wrong with it. Signal Yellow also has it's moments and the last metallic choice is cool as well BUT we see plenty of Red and Yellow among the actual "colors" (outside of black, white, silver and gray variants).

I do not see many interesting colors like Amethyst.

Red cars rule!

Did you unconsciously post them in the order you prefer?
Amethyst is something you don't see every day. I've always loved Signal Yellow. Guards Red is always a classic. Superior Red Metallic may appear too black for my tastes, but you probably can't go wrong with any.

1. Amethyst
2. Signal Yellow
3. Guards Red
4. Superior Red Metallic

Cheers

I am a big fan of signal yellow myself, though all choices are good.

Did you decide on a color? There was an amethyst over cognac on BAT recently, and it was gorgeous.

Interesting development of sorts. I asked my salesman about Continental Orange and why Porsche refuses to paint it. He did some digging and was told they plan to bring it back under a new name in MY '28. Hard to know how real this is -- anyone else hear this --@WillyDaP maybe? If true, I'm incline to get a tune on my current car and wait for '28 in this color. It's my all-time favorite Porsche color -- what Lava should have been really...

Here is Canepa's unicorn 918 in Continental Orange...

I'm partial to Porsche's greens (Oak Green) and blues (Yachting) but agree with the rankings by Gaspowered on the four you're considering. The amethyst would look so nice in my yellow garage!
