How do you guys get all this info. My dealer just told me that they have a day when the car is supposed to leave the factory (which in my case is late November) and thats it.
I asked when it was going into production. They had no idea. I asked if it was possible to add PCCB to the order and they said it was locked and nothing could be done to change it. I doubt production would have already started for a late November completion...
Anyways PTS is confirmed and can't wait to see it. And no it's not black
sorry but just can't phantom why you would have put black as PTS colour.. :-D

So when will they open up the PTS window? For 2016 builds?

There's no 2016 builds. There was a very very small opening for PTS now in Oct/Nov.. and I believe an even narrower one in Feb/March when a handful of cars could get PTS (hence the Riviera and Birch Green ones which were photographed around) which then got put on hold re engine replacement.
There won't be any other window for PTS for the GT3. The next one will be for the RS next year.. if they manage to launch in time for a PTS open window that is..

Not sure I get why you're saying what you did--maybe I'm just misunderstanding the question. But it is possible to get buckets in a MY2015 with PTS. I did just that. The only caveat is that PTS had to be already approved a while ago, so you would be correct in saying that this is now currently no longer possible to do, as PTS allocations are no longer forthcoming. But my PTS approval came (I was once a cat C MY2014) for my MY2015 build. Since my production date is in Dec, the option to spec lightweight sport buckets opened up and I also took it! (BTW, I'm in the North American market, subject to "US" build limitations even though I'm ordering in Canada. FWIW, ROW customers have been able to order their GT2-style sport buckets in 2015 cars with PTS too; although I don't believe that was the intent of the question.)

Best PTS for a 2015
I have to lock in my 2015 PTS by the 20th and cannot commit to a color.
Was going Mexico Blue with buckets, yellow belts, and PCCB, but the other Blues and Blacks look so nice!
Question, want to track a few times a year and have some re-sell value left.
What color would you lock in? and white and black are not colors.
Thanks in advance.

'And it's too late baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide it
And I just can't fake it'
We will be watching this space for updates on you PTS. We are pulling for you...and we hope your dealer wasn't just pulling your chain!

There are a few mex/riv blues already and a few greens (including this one on autogespot that I'm not sure has been seen on RL yet http://www.autogespot.com/porsche-991-gt3-8/2014/10/04), but it seems like they're all in Europe so far???

If that is the case, you better get used to somebody at Porsche soon singing this Carole King tune to you!

OK - So you are saying I am writing a check for a 20K deposit on Tuesday for a car that cannot be delivered? Do I call B.S. on the dealer and pass on it?
Oh and the color choices did not help much, that green also looks crazy good.
