I've narrowed it down to:
- Basalt black and terra cotta (maybe two tone) (opinions on Basalt vs. flat?)
- Meteor grey and terra cotta
- Meteor grey and cocoa
- Slate greay and natural brown

I'd appreciate all opinions, and of course, pictures of real cars!

Thanks.

 

My opinion would be to go with a Grey tone, i love Silver/Grey's, like black also but wouldnt be my choice looking at those. Slate on natural brown would look awesome

 

Slate/Meteor on natural brown. You're a lucky man.

 

judge is right.

slate with natural no.1 meteor with natural no.2

now i'm gonna look for something else since the combo is taken.

this will give u a pretty good idea.

 

Slate (from Rennteam, below).

Now that just looks fantastic !

 

Damn, thats a good color combo. Im drooling.

 

Slate or Basalt w Natural would be my choice.

I would go with a metallic color as opposed to flat black. My car is flat black and I wouldn't do it again.

 

If I would get a 997tt Id get Carmon red/ Terracotta , Now that would look exotic

 

I agree. Especially if this isn't your daily driver then you should go miami vice on that one! That carmon red is hot. I would personaly go for a light bluish color... carrera white / terracotta is also a killer.

But from your choices, slate / nat.... make sure you don't go flat black.. very dull at night... IMHO! You want the your car to reflect when hid's from other cars hit it...!

 

+1 on the Slate gray and natural brown

 

white with ascot?

 

Basalt and either terra or ascot (two-tone) would be stunning. Anything on cocoa is splendid also.

Flat vs. Basalt. I always like some metal flake in black since it tends to hide the dust as it accumulates.

 

Slate greay and natural brown is awesome, +1

 

LOVE this color combo on the F430. But this color combo looks much better on 360/430/575s than on 996/997s IMO. Good Fchat pic.

 

Of your choices, I'd go for the basalt with natural brown slightly over slate with NB.

Personally, I'm either gonna get Atlas with natural grey or cobalt with natural grey!
