Looking sexy just sitting there in the sun. The platinum satin wheels really vary in the light, from this (almost sliver looking ) to a dark charcoal in the shade / low light.

It's literally automotive art! I have the exact same build coming (down to the wheels).

Hi Jim,

Well my good man I Totally-Missed the event as I was visiting the family in Frankfort & Sadieville, Kentucky for a week.

However I see you and your 2022 Gentian Blue Porsche Spyder did an excellent job at the event.

You do have an outstanding Porsche that's for sure and you do keep it in immaculate condition, Sir.







Congratulations again,
Terry

I don’t know, I have not had the car long but I can say with certainty there’s no quality ceramic coating on it. I did put a coat of ceramic spray and wipe (Chemical Guys I think) and that gave it a nice shine, but really what you’re seeing there is the quality of the metallic paint, you see the same quality in @jimdillard ’s photo.

Not as fresh as John’s paint above, but this is as close to new paint as I’ll get with this 2020……paint correction and a few coats of Ceramic Pro

Looks great!
The lights outside of the dealer are difficult to compete with.

I am convinced this is one of the best colors that porsche has ever produced.
