2005 CGT search

I asked for help in locating a new silver CGT with delivery miles and you guys came through like champs. Was inundated with locations of all the new CGTs. Now, I'm looking at both a silver and a seal grey, both still unwrapped. My question is:

Anyone here have a seal grey or have seen one enough to express an opinion between silver and seal grey? I like both but have not seen the seal grey in person. I know about half of all CGTs were made in silver. Just from the pics, I am leaning towards the seal grey but wanted to hear from any of you with first hand experience.

Oh...both cars have natural grey interiors.

Thanks...

Seal grey is awesome, IMO. I've seen both side by side.

I have seen them both... and personally I prefer the Seal Grey. It would be a toss up for me between Seal Grey and Black.

can't go wrong with either. although Seal looks a little dull for CGT imho.

I would personally go with Seal. It is a more unique color on the CGT and looks great.

There is a reason why Porsche developed the CGT silver.

Seal grey is used by the Navy for its fleet. Harder to see on an ocean. On a car, it is a drab color. I did not like it on a CGT.

Great response so far. I'm still waiting for a decent picture of a seal grey CGT as I will never see one on the street here. Only saw a pic taken with flash inside a storage building. Someone out there MUST have one???????

I'd go with Fayence yellow, but I'm a bit biased.
