Olso Blue is a beautiful color choice. But what surprised me the most is how small of a car the Carrera GT looks like parked next to the 718 Spyder. Maybe it's the angle of the photo, but the Carrera GT looks like the same size as a Spyder, maybe even slightly smaller than the Spyder...
I'm happy to report that I took delivery of my Oslo Blue Spyder the other day. Oslo Blue is a color I've drooled over for years but had never seen it in person. I never thought I'd get the chance to build a car in that color myself but it is phenomenal in person and I couldn't be happier with the choice. I've only driven it 3 times but have gotten compliments about the color from random strangers each time out.
I have to say thank you to my SA and the GM at Park Place Porsche for getting me the allocation and coaching me through the process. They made me a deal that was more than fair, worked very hard to earn my business and make sure I was satisfied and overall, it was a great experience. Here are a few crappy iphone pics in different light. In the sun In the shade In the garage with new bunkmates
Oslo Blue Spyder has always been my Holy Grail spec. You are a legend.

I have the same effect with my Spyder and 991.2 GT3, I think the Spyder is actually larger the GT3!!!

It must be the angle. The Carrera GT is 7" longer and 5" wider than the Spyder. But I totally see what you mean in the photos. What an incredible garage.

Thanks again for all the kind words, and yes, the cgt is considerably larger. Probably lens distortion on the iphone or something making it look smaller. Took the Spyder in for PPF this afternoon and managed to get some "sun" pics as requested. Enjoy.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE HUMPS!!!
Love it! Also glad to see that the Satellite wart is also painted in PTS color and not left as black as I believe the 911 Touring did. I know people were saying that it's painted but this is the first actual US car that I've seen for confirmation.
Keep the pictures coming! How about the interior?
Also, when you have a chance, do you mind checking around your car to see if it has anything to confirm/identify the PTS color and/or color code? AFAIK, the Monroney sticker doesn't actually say the color/color code so wondering if anywhere on the car actually has the color/color code identified?
