I agree about black being boring. I ended up selecting full black as a default because I cared even less from the other options. I ended up with the "neutral" option (black) astonished after having customized the rest of the car (special paint, port installed options). I even considered the individual options tartufo, smoke white, ect. however for a 5k option I felt I had to love it and I was not even feeling it. So black it is.....

Don't think it would work well with Silverstone. Fashion Grey has more yellow than Nardo, etc. It is a stunning color, but Silverstone has way more blue and would clash IMO. Had a white of Silverstone M3 and loved that combination. Fashion with red is absolutely stunning.
BTW this is a very rare color and stands out a lot more than Nardo now. Nardo/Toyota Cement/etc became the color of 2018 and this is just different enough. Historic Porsche color dating back to the early days of the marque. |

Interior wise, I have black as well. This choice was more of a necessity than preferential. Granted a two one or lighter interior would pop more, but I use her every day, drive into City often, park in city garages, etc. and feel it would be way too much work to maintain. Hell, I even run the car through a car wash, cause don't have the time or patience to hand wash so frequently. Weather sucks in NE, car needs a wash almost two times a week!

Wow, really hot! Reminds me of a color that Ford had back in the day on the Fox Body Mustangs in late 80s. We used to call it "eggshell"!

Love it... I'm trying to think what other interiors may work with this color. Caramel or Tartufo could maybe work, smoke white would work. I'm bored with black but if I'm honest its probably the best combo with this exterior.

Agreed on the interior, another might fight the appearance of the grey. I'd also tint those windows!

Although I normally prefer the Aragon Brown or Silverstone interior to break up the all black offering, on this car...all Black interior is the only way to go.

I guess I'm the oddball in this because I think that color is horrible looking. The pics make it look to be nothing more than a dirty white or a white covered in pollen. The CF bits are nice but that's about it.
