Default Under Graphite Blue Skies

I suppose Porsche could've called it Storm Grey or Sea Cloud Blue. Whatever you call it, I love this color.

And I'm consistent. Here's my old 2010 S5 she replaced, in "Meteor Grey" (Audi parlance). Less blue than GBM, and non metallic. But still of a theme...

Beautiful! Love the colour, but I'm biased as that is the colour I ordered.

Is the interior graphite blue / chalk?

Yup—Graphite Blue/Chalk interior. Which IMO is simply the freshest, classiest, most delicious Porsche interior going. I'd hazard to say it's even nicer than the exterior. You will SO not be disappointed.

Love the color - one of my favorites - but there is no freakin' way I'd buy a car painted "Sea Cloud Blue" - ever.

My Acura is Graphite Luster Metallic. My wife's Infiniti is Graphite Shadow. I guess there must be fifty shades of graphite.

I also like this color... it's on my .2 GT3 build although I have second thoughts to change to Sapphire Blue because my ACR is Ceramic Blue which is kinda close (the Viper's has more blue and more vivid). For now I haven't changed colors yet on the .2 since I guess it wouldn't be that terrible to actually have two shades of blue-gray cars in the collection.
