Which color GT3 are you?

Which one would you choose? White or Carmine Red?
All of my cars been like white except couple times black and silver. I am not scared to go white but I am with red. Would red draw so much attention and gets tiring later?

I'm sort of done buying cars without a strong color. My 911 is Meteor Grey, its cool.. classic-ish. But its gotta be something like blue or sunburnt orange or such for a GT3.

My M2 is long beach blue, I like that it's somewhat bright.

Agreed, my C6 is the ugliest shade of mustard yellow but I love it and would never want it in white or grey. Get the red, you won't regret it.

Red, by far. Exciting cars need exciting colors. I would never order/buy a black, grey, white, silver GT3. Red, yellow, orange, green, blue for me. Keep the boring colors for boring cars.

Voodoo Blue for me, but of those two the Carmine Red would be my choice.

Go unique or go home.

Being as you gave 2 choices I would go with red. This car will never hide no matter the colour and who would want to hide those lines.

I think the smaller the car, the more of an extreme color you can get away with, and these thinly-disguised track cars even moreso. I chose Storm Titanium for my Exige because I'm a photographer, but there were other more extreme colors that tripped my trigger for sure, and the car could pull it off. I think the GT3 is so elegant, just the right size, expensive enough, and purposeful enough that it looks great in any color. Hard choice for sure.

Carmine red to me is very lipstick red not a big fan. Looks great in some lights, looks dull in others, looks like lipstick in most. It's not sports car red in my opinion. For the gt3 I do think white is nice, gt silver, and agate.
If it was me Miami blue out of the standard range colors and some of the paint to sample ones are really awesome.
