Most of these colors were represented in Rare Shades 4 in LA. Maybe someone has some pictures of the event. Having said that, please note that pictures do not really represent these colors correctly.

Beautiful car, but I’m a bit biased towards green machines. Especially birch green (even though it’s not a GT car, but it is a GTS) 😂

Porsche's Verde British Racing is not an exact copy of Ferrari's own Verde British Racing, just FYI.

I really like Underberg and the extra bit of yellow it has. I was a bit surprised to see it on the list of 50 approved PTS colors recently. I really hope we see people chose that more. The GT2 RS that @CAlexio posted is stunning.

Slight correction. Brewster Green was a 1973 Pontiac color long before Porsche used it exclusively, (as seen by this ultra rare Super Duty Trans Am example being restored by a family friend). 😌👌

if you are going to "go green" go BRIGHT green like this - all the others remind me of something you'd see on the battlefield or on a vintage Bentley!

Very cool color palates here.
I really all depends on what you're after. The Verde is just a hair darker than the Brewster. They look very similar effect wise.

the Irish is a very nice color stand alone. The Olive is very much brighter.

All really good colors, depending on what you're looking for.

The Birch one above belongs in this conversation about as much as my RS Green. Or any other shade of Signal, Viper, etc.

The Dark greens are a very refined look. And I like them well with silver or bronze wheels more than the black.
