The white on beige car shown does not have PDLS,.....so it does not have headlight washers (or so my theory goes)

The Porsche web site greatly exaggerates the so called "black" PDLS lights. The only difference between the regular lights and these is that the housing area inside the light is a medium grey compared to the silver of the regular light. It's not black by any means and in all honesty not much difference between the two. Anyone not told the difference, would probably not notice it.

That headlight clearly shows they are not pdls in black, just pdls.

Pdls in black totaly have black inner housing including the outter lining, similar to headlight on the new boxster. In Germany, they are available to order starting from weeks 45 (early November)

I think PS looks better at night and Agate Grey better during the day. The Agate Grey has a little more texture in the color.
Like SM_ATL I ended up going with white!

I have yet to see a picture that really captures agate, including my own. Recommend seeing it in person.

That would be tough choice to make, I would recommend seeing them both in person and in different light at all possible then make your decision. Those are both great colors and don't think you can go wrong with ether one.

I agree with SM_ATL. PtAg with black or red (or black and red in my case) and Agate for grey or beige interior. I think the agate with the espresso is a great combo also. Silver is easier to keep clean. And like Haku, I like the 20" Pt wheels. At the risk of offending someone, any standard color but black (looks great but only for the 5 minutes it is clean) and lime gold(it looks like something you blow into a tissue - JMO)
