The reality is hardly no one ever does custom paint. Resale value is actually worse with a custom paint to sample paint. Most of today’s 911 owners prefer to have their dealer spec their cars. Chalk white or other trendy colors satisfy most owners.
Funny because I've walked away from a Porsche because our local dealer sucks and didn't want to order a car for me. I wanted anything other than Black interior. The limited color options is also a big detractor for me to consider Tesla as well. In fact, people here are so tired of Tesla's same colors year after year that I now see a disproportionate number of Tesla's with vinyl wraps. Which I find funny that people seem reluctant to pay extra for a paint job but they seem to have no problem paying for a vinyl wrap.
