Lava Orange is not PTS. Black, Racing Yellow, and Lava were all readily available optional colors to the standard white and silver.

Loess, can you please clarify for us the 'true PTS' color
you know has been built with US specs? And attach
a photo from Zuffenhausen if you can. Thanks!

It's a true PTS, non-metallic 98. It also has the single-mass flywheel and some CXX stuff. I don't have a picture, unfortunately. We definitely need a correspondent reporting from the factory.

sweet. That's basically my spec except for black wheels and regular tails.

did you have a look and see if the door pulls were also lava orange?

Excellent news. By the way, have you been able to place
your beautiful 'Gulf Blue' 981 Spyder yet? That is such a
great spec on a Spyder!

Nein, unfortunately. I was set to attend 'Wheels & Wings
Festival
/ Vail Automotive Classic' which is organized by
some of my Vail friends (Don Welch, Ed Swinford & Bob Ruder),
all fellow 'GearHeads', the name of our local Vail Valley car aficionados.

http://www.vailautomotiveclassic.com

But I had to cancel at last minute. I had a second home in Vail Valley
(Singletree) for 7 years & love the area. I was there earlier this summer
to attend the Bravo Music Festival. I strongly recommend to all of our
Colorado friends at Rennlist to attend the various auto events in the Vail
Valley this week!

Its free for 30 days, so you can cancel after you watch it.
This post finally pushed me over the edge to join MT on demand. So glad I did!
The video is great and love the segment in the middle where he's sitting in the car playing with the pedals, listening to the noises. His response to that was fantastic. (all things I feel and hear in my old 964)

Plus the amount of racing on the channel is insane. WEC, DTM, Porsche Cup, Nurburging races, etc.

BTW, I watched the M4 GTS review just after the R video... very funny!
