I love the GT Silver. Sooooo easy to keep clean and even when not perfectly clean - looks clean. I've done the black and while probably nothing prettier than a perfectly clean black car - how long are they perfectly clean. I'm 57 and past the stage of drive it - wash it, drive it - wash it. Been there, done that. I had on '07 GT Silver and sold it. Then bought an '08 so I had a chance at a "do over" and still got GT Silver again. Good luck with your choice. Really can't go wrong with either color.
How do you like the larger brakes? Worth the $$??

Arctic Silver:
Brighter than GT silver, easy to keep clean. Sratches don't show.
I have black now. Super super shiny but I always have to think twice about taking it out. Dirt and dust really show easily.
So, if this will be your daily driver, some type of silver would be great. Weekend warrior, I like black or basalt black.

Thanks Nyamg
TT goes in for the evo700 kit tomorrow. New intercoolers and reworked turbos. I have already done the ECU,headers,plenum,exhaust,reverter valve, and Techart coilovers. I guess after this work I will be done

1. No brake dust so MUCH easier to keep wheels clean - goes back to original post of being lazy when it comes to keeping car clean.
2. I like yellow with GT Silver better than red.
3. I wanted the latest - greatest (ego)

What will it do for you? - Make you change underwear.

I saw a new Basalt Black 911 here in the Seattle area a few months back. It was absolutely gorgeous. A friend of mine got some photos of it, and after looking at the pictures we noticed huge reflections of purple hidden within the paint depending on how the sunlight reflected off of it. Was it just our camera, or is there something in the basalt black paint producing this effect? Anyone know?
He deleted the pictures unfortunately...
