I believe it was Gentian, Arctic, and Black that were added, due to lack of PTS availability

ETA the link

Arctic with that interior would also look fantastic as well

I'm curious whether any got built that way. I can certainly vouch that GT and Slate both look damned good, would be interesting to compare and contrast.

So far, no.

^ At least one car each in Arctic Grey and Gentian Blue, and there may be two (or more) of each.

^ Correct. Those three colors were added alongside the preexisting GT Silver after PTS became NLA for MY 2023.

I have yet to see one in A1 Black, which I ended up loving in renderings for the way it popped the Ascot—but it may prove a unicorn (of the mythical kind, sadly).

Huge thanks to 000 Magazine, Porsche Canada and Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur for making this a possibility.
And all I did, was ask.....
The result speaks for itself.

- Soul over axle pipes (GPF delete)
- Clamped valves open (McMaster PN 9652T14, 316 stainless shaft collar)
- Full PPF (SunTek)
- Ceramic coat
- Black & white hood crest
- Bolster covers in Ascot Brown leather (EdGuard)
- PCCBs (calipers repainted black to match the original spec, PMB Performance)




















Love it.

I very much hope to see and hear this car in person sometime soon!

^ Frank does incredible work, and very cool to see the White and Brewster cars together above.

Have to imagine the two cars look incredible together in various lighting, with white on white wheels creating a super stark contrast with the dark green 718. Hope to see that one day!

Those door pulls, in particular, are perfection. (Also, you're braver than I am, if you're saying you lowered a further 10mm!)

Would you please post more shots showing the new wheels? I'm debating picking up a set on my green GT4.
