It's a beautiful, interesting color that really changes in different lighting.
Fully agreed.
Now realizing the first 991.2 I drove was Graphite Blue Metallic, and that I don't think I've seen a GBM 991.2 (or 991.2 generation in general) I didn't like. While the first factory images of the 991.2 featured a Guards Red C2S (iirc), GBM was arguably the "communication color" for this generation of the 911. It was also a relative bargain at $700, because it reads as PTS.
I really had my heart set on chalk white and been looking for quite some time. But when I saw this and ticked off all the boxes in terms of options I was sold. Had it PPI and flew to the west coast to pick it up and drove her home with the wife on an epic journey back across the country to Toronto. The colour grew on me and glad I bought it. Like others have suggested it looks different depending on the lighting. Below is pic with the Rocky Mountains in the background.
Exactly, when photographing in bright sun, it looks grey and somewhat flat or matte, and in the shade, rich and blue. A filter on the lens would probably help when shooting in direct sun.
I see you have the aluminum window trim (as I do), it accents the classic lines of the windows.
I think black trim also looks good for more of a motorsport look.
The aluminum trim creates more of a classic look especially with this colour.
I fell in love with it instantly.
