Stop the presses, I have a final color combo for my 991 4S
After seeing these pics of Fashion Grey, I decided to get that with a natural leather in Espresso interior, giving me a close replica of the Sport Classic. Probably as close as Porsche will allow.

Maybe, I just have not looked at it yet.
let me explain this. I made this decision this evening after seeing the pics posted in the GT3 forum. I have been going around and around trying to find a color combo that I wanted. Something that when I saw it I would know right away this was it. Along the way I think I came up with some interesting ideas, some that no doubt would have been gorgeous cars. None of them spoke to me, so to speak. When I saw this color I knew instantly that is what I wanted, I opened the 2013 PTS list kindly linked to by Z356 (IIRC) and made sure the color was on there and made the decision that this was the color combo for me.

Holy crap, THAT is seriously goodlooking. I looooooved that 997 sport classic. And it works wonders on your 991 too. Are you getting the somewhat darker contrast striping on the hood too ?
Honestly, actually I like yours better than the original 997 sport classic.

I am only going by internet photos and the configurator at the dealership. I've never seen it in person, so perhaps geyser is more different from fashion than I have perceived from the photos.
Here is an example of fashion grey:

And then geyser:

They don't look that different to me. But perhaps the contrast is more obvious in person. Or perhaps my eyes have gone bad. If anything, the geyser appears a touch darker. But I don't see yellow. I actually hope it does have a hint of yellow as some of my favorite older 911s have been a cream color.
Yes, it is geyser grey metallic.

Please post pictures when you get it as you will probably get your car before I get mine....
