Available with 7MT, Ilko.

Color is based on Porsche's old "Acid Blue," but modified by "two hues," I am told.

Default 'Acid Blue / Bahama Blue' color code 354

Thanks Pete. If that is the case, 'Acid Blue' is also known as 'Bahama Blue' and had color code 354. It was a 1974/1975 'special color' available on the 911 after the end of the longhood period.












I believe there was also a 3.0 RSR IROC done in that color (Petty car):



It might be two hues from 'Bahama/Acid Blue', but 'Club Blau' is nevertheless a stunning color with a wonderful, historic pedigree at Porsche!

So they're going to make 60 of them and they're betting there are enough interested people in the Porsche Club of America to buy all of them? They're ONLY available to PCA members. are there 60 members that want to buy them? How big a club is PCA because I feel like that's a bit of a gamble that all 60 will sell.

I don't know, but our Chicago region alone has over 1,800 registered PCA members. Do 3% of them want a Club Sport 991?? If only 0.5% do, that's about 10 cars right there. Bam! More than 16% that are available going only to one Region.

I can easily seeing at least 40 (1/2 the allocation) cars going to:

Illinois
New York
Florida
California
Canada

So, that leaves about 20 cars going to the remaining 46 States.

Don't worry. PCA membership is over 100,000 at moment. It's the largest automobile club in the world. They can easily sell the 60...and they will!

Yes, I think 'Club Blau' will be available via PTS within a short period of time...just like 'Brewster Green' and 'Azzuro Blue California', previous Club Coupes exclusive colors, are available today via PTS. PAG is an 'easy' date...

But they are, Lex. Ask Mag3 about his PTS Geyser C4S!
