Viper TT is infamous around these parts
Newbie Intro

Hello all. After chasing potential GT2's for the last month, I've decided to spend the money for a 997TT instead.

I secured an allocation today and now have a few weeks to decide the color and options.

I'm in a heavy debate between GT Silver, Arctic Silver, and Meteor Gray.

Did my wife put you guys up to this? There must be a conspiracy going on trying to save the $2380 upcharge for GT Silver!

Arctic is closest to GT.

Meteor grey from those choices. Black is awesome. My 996tt was Lapis blue and was also beautiful. White looks great on the 997tt. Can't go wrong with any color really, it's a great car.

Can't miss with silver. I chose the arctic silver to save the $2.3K. Wasn't sure what the 2 grand would provide since both are metallic paints. I stayed away from the meteor grey because of the darker shade.

These are from Porsche's website, so not the best, but, you get an idea

Arctic silver
