Frequently asked questions

What is the paint code for Porsche Sport Classic Grey?

Sport Classic Grey has carried Porsche paint code 63A (997 Sport Classic). Porsche reuses names across eras with different codes, so match the code on the car's option sticker or build sheet rather than the name alone.

Which Porsche models and years came in Sport Classic Grey?

Our sources list Sport Classic Grey on the 911 Sport Classic (997) (2010, limited edition only). If you see it on a model or year not listed, it may be a Paint to Sample order or a respray — the build sheet for the VIN shows which.

Is Sport Classic Grey a Paint to Sample color?

Our sources list Sport Classic Grey as a limited edition only rather than Paint to Sample. Porsche's Paint to Sample program can still apply many past colors to new cars, so a recent car in Sport Classic Grey may be a PTS order.

Sport Classic Grey vs Sport Grey Metallic: what's the difference?

Sport Classic Grey (code 63A) is the non-metallic grey of the 2009 997 Sport Classic. Sport Grey Metallic is the 2022 992 Sport Classic's own metallic paint, and Porsche called that car the first to wear it. Both draw on the 356's Fashion Grey, but they are separate paints.

How can I tell if a Porsche is factory Sport Classic Grey?

Read the paint code on the option sticker (in the maintenance booklet and, on most models, in the front luggage compartment) or on a build sheet for the VIN, and compare it with 63A. A matching color name alone does not rule out a respray or wrap.
