It seems like every GT3RS is that purple.
It's the wildest of the "standard" colors. Any wilder and you have to go Paint To Sample and those are 100k over sticker.

My dad bought one same color, forgot what it's called. But IIRC, Porsche only comes in 3 colors, all else is extra$$

I can see this color on the Panamera or Cayenne, but not the flagship 911.

There's a green GT3 RS in my parents' hood. Same guy also has a 997 GT2.

Guy owns the nola motorsport shop outside Metairie club gardens.

Crazy. Like 800k worth of cars in his driveway.

Thats a beautiful color. Classy. Much better than ketchup red or mustard yellow. Put the picnic table condiments down and go for natural colors.

Porsche 911 wouldn't be my choice if I was going to drop $100k on a car, but that color doesn't look bad at all. Especially with tan interior

That particular shade of brown looks very rich and sophisticated. If it were "doo doo" brown like some trucks I've seen on the road, I'd likely feel differently.

What color is your vehicle? Give me 2 guesses and I bet I get it.

That's not true. The metallic colors are extra $$$$

He also has a 96 993 Turbo S - with mid miles, $200k+

His shop always has some GT3/2, Turbos, and some other exotics sitting out front. Eye candy for the morning commute

I'm sorry, should I stop buying white cars? I'd like to keep up with the OT's ever-elusive trashy/not trashy list.
