Seal Grey. I believe my 99 996 is the first ever seal grey which was a custom color order.

Why the preference of Artic Silver over Polar Silver? - I really like the blue/purple overtones of PS - it also seems to be somewhat rare compared to the AS (and was extra cost [I seem to recall 2700.00] over the AS)

SY/BK (but I'm biased)
AS/BK - My first was this combo...was very classic, still love it.

Robyn, Shank, and others - I have to say, speed yellow with black interior and deviated stitching is probably my favorite color, but do you (or anyone else with speed yellow, for that matter) feel like it is too 'in your face' in terms of color? Shank, you might have a harder time judging with the garage you have, as people might expect a little 'in your face' from you, but still, help me out here - silver and seal grey are so much more reserved than speed yellow, but it looks SO TRICK!

Polar Silver by far. It is the most interesting color they offer with lots of different hues. Also is much more rare than Arctic.

Next i would say Yellow and White are tied.

I have Basalt Black now and I've always loved black metallic, but I think Seal Grey is probably the best Porsche color. It's very rich looking and it's not too dark so it shows off all of the car's lines/deatils. My Cayenne TT is Titanium Grey which is essentially S/G. However, I'm seriously considering Speed Yellow for my next Porsche.

Seal Grey...Best color to elude police detection. The faster you go, the closer the car appears to be the color of asphalt...

Seal Grey is the best! Although if I order a GT3 I'd get Cobalt Blue if you still can.
