Congrats on a great looking car. I agree that GT Silver takes on different looks in different lighting. My favorite is late afternoon sun, like these photos of my GT Silver Targa last year.

thank you every1 
the camera flash makes it appear brighter than it actually is.
in person, it blends in very well with the leather
wouldn't know, my car has not been dirty since the day i got her 
but u are 100% correct re: the different colors.. its actually amazing when u consider it goes from light bluish silver to dark gray..
will let u know as soon as i get it installed
BTW eric from bumperplugs.com is a pleasure to deal with.. don't hesitate to deal with him or ask him any questions.

purchased on Mar 7, 2010
CPO 2007 C2S Cab / GT Silver / Cocoa full-leather / Cocoa top / 6 speed
14,900 miles when i bought it.. driven 1600 miles already and this is not my DD
Cargraphics exhaust, RSS 7mm spacers in the rear, OEM SSK, RSS IPD intake plenum, SmarTop, Rennline pedals, BMC air filter, Hoen lights, and Dension gateway 500 with bluetooth
i am sure everyone loves their car's color.. but GT silver seem to have two different shades, depending on the light.
its been a joy.. and i still can't stop staring at her.. (yes, i named her)

Beautiful color combo. Have been interested in seeing good pics of cocoa interior. Thanks - love the day and night shots; it's like the difference between dark chocolate and milk chocolate.

Congrats!
Amazing color combination. I have the coupe version...GT Silver with Cocoa extended leather interior with Champion wheels.
Anyway, I agree with comments above about the GT Silver paint. It really is a very complex color, and with Cocoa interior, the combination really sets the car off. It's unique, yet subtle without being in-your-face. It has a very sophisticated look to it.

^^^those were specially commissioned by Brandywine Porsche with Champion. They were one offs...I don't know how many sets were made total, but I know that Champion does not make them anymore.
