Default New Shark Blue 4.0 BGTS
Hi all,
Picking up tomorrow, can't believe how close Porsche configurator is to the real deal. Only choice I questioned was deviated seats because you can't see on configurator, but look fantastic!

Crayon interior with match paint and deviated seat

Its blue!

Great color! Finally got to see one in person yesterday.
Sadly, mine got pushed back to Feb '22 delivery. I went with the GTS interior.

Nice.

Deviated center seat panel is difficult to imagine. Probably some photos on the forum though. I considered having black center panel in black/ bordeaux interior. Was lucky to see the seats at a dealer that orders customized cars for inventory. It was a no go for me.

Enjoy the new ride!

Looks great!
Did you go with black or blue top? Can't tell from the pic angle.

it has black top. The black trim and top really make this color glow...color changes throughout the day, many time it looks really close to vodoo blue.

Love it! And those wheels -- I had them on my previous BGTS 2.5, and if I could have had them on my current Spyder I would've done it. Enjoy!

VERY nice! Did your headlight washer covers come black with it, or did you spec them black as an option?

yes, black is base, you have pay to have color matched. I honestly wish Porsche would give us the delete option.
