Bumping the Python thread back up!
47 degrees today. Supposed to be 60 or so this weekend so a few more miles before 2021 arrives.

I’m waiting on my allocation and seriously thinking I’m getting a Python Green GT4 with black wheels and tinted windows. Has anyone taken delivery of one with black wheels that could post a pic?

I'm kinda warming up to Python with the platinum wheels, but that may just be because I love platinum wheels and think they should be the only color Porsche offers. They are the right tone with Python, which I think is the problem I have with this color - love the color, but not with contrasting black or silver. With these wheels it starts to work.

I agree. I have other cars with black wheels and I am over the trend. While any bright color can be contrasted with black for a great look, the platinum wheels scream "GT4" to my eye.

As I _impatiently_ wait for my car to show up, thank you for posting this pic to this thread! I'm over 6 weeks sitting in Benicia, and really, really hoping it makes it up here to Seattle in time for this weekend. Will be checking with my dealer later today to see if he's heard anything.

Your car looks awesome and the platinum wheels do look fantastic. I went with Satin Aurum, which isn't for everyone, but I think they'll look incredible on the car.

Feel free to post more pics. This thread seems to be the loneliest color thread, so we really need to spark it up!

Stopped by my dealer today and they got in three Boxster GTS 4.0s, one of which was Python with Satin Aurum wheels.

I’m still amazed at how hard it is to get a photo to really capture this color. It’s actually a bit darker than it looks in these pictures. Still looks great though.

Looks great Ron!
I agree...very difficult to capture the color in photos.

Agreed...hard to photograph but looks so good in person.
Another month and mine should be here.
Got already a few OEM interior upgrades to go with the lizard green deviated stitching...got to kill time somehow.

Maybe I just missed it, but any pictures of Python with the classic interior? I'm thinking the red might be dark enough to keep it from looking like Christmas.

Ron, you found my car! Well... it's Sherry's car but still. I don't think we're going to pick it up for another week though. /sigh
