As per the post, Nine One Six is painted paint-to-sample Fashion Grey. The name is the same and the color appears the same as the light grey that first dropped with the Porsche 911 Sport Classic (type 997.2).

Fashion Grey is a great color, and one we’ve always wondered if Porsche didn’t miss the mark pairing with a colored-leather such as red, blue or green. The client who commissioned Nine One Six may have been wondering the same, because Burgundy leather plays a major part in the interior seen here. Also seemingly in a nod to the Sport Classic that saw the modern production return of Pepita a.k.a. Houndstooth cloth, the owner of Nine One Six also specced the signature woven leather Singer is known for in a pattern that echoes bicolor houndstooth of some Porsche seating back in the day. Very tasteful.
