what color combo is this??

Thinking about placing my order soon for a TT cab....

I Really like this combo that I seen on Porsche's website,
But they do not state the color combo??

please need to know what exterior color is this?
and interior pretty sure it's red ....It just seems you can never be to sure
as the colors seem to change so much from viewing them on screen to actual life..

what do you guys think of it?

That looks like Meteor Grey with Carrera red leather interior. Definitely a showstopper.

Keep in mind the photoshop geniuses (use of term lightly) at PAG animate the colors a bit, so nothing in Porsche's general promo shots is real. GT Silver and Meteor work with Carrera Red leather. If you look at the latest print ads from Porsche, with the star lit sky, you will see a Meteor Metallic/Carrera Red Cab. Notice the meteor in the sky too (get it?). There are a handful of east coast dealers with inbound cars using Carrera Red leather, mostly with Arctic, GT Silver and Carrara White exteriors. Should be in showrooms shortly.

You should go for Meteor or Slate with Carrera red leather definatley a nice contrast and is quiet sporty but inbound and not over done like Red/Red.

That is meteor 90% and most likely like the top poster said that color is photoshoped but its to dark to be GT silver or arctic silver.

The more I am comparing colors and beating my brain to try to get as close as a color match to this pictured car that I love so much!! It seems there is no such Porsche color ,,It actually seems to be in-between Meteor & GT Silver??!!

I agree they are tweaked colors, photo # 1 is closer to GT while number 2 is closer to meteor; yet neither. Show the photo and special order it

Meteor looks like it has a little more taupe in it.




Is it just me or does the turbo look better without the bumperettes?
