Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Sorry for missing it. I used this document as the reference for colors, I guess it's not complete (

).
How do you know the production count for that color? Part of the reason for doing the poll was to get a rough idea of production counts per color since that doesn't seem to be data that Porsche has generally shared. It would be great to know if there is publicly available information on color counts.
that's just me screwing around
all the 40th Anniversary Editions (1963 worldwide, 7xx US, maybe North America) all were GT Silver Metallic
I kid that we are the elite, perhaps because that color was not available on MKII's, even as PTS

PeterP - Odd DTM it isn't on that list of yours... Not a common color, no doubt, but it comes up quite often. There's 3 of us, already!
