I checked with a few friends and with my sample size, 4 Zuff cars had full paint and 2 OS cars didnt. Its on the strut towers too, not just the front area.
are they going to paint the missed spots? That seems cheap for such a marquee car.
My 981 GT4?was made in Osbabruck and had similar missing paint so body in white colour for strut mounts and the frunk area as shown i. The image.. I expect my 4RS to be the same!

No way Porsche paints these areas after the fact, you're kidding if you think that's a battle you can win. Just shows the quality is higher on Zuff cars that were made in 2023 and some of 24 before the switch over. I know if I was in the market for a used 4RS I'd be looking for a Zuff car.
Ship Emden and Wolfsburg are both set to arrive in Emden port this coming weekend. Hopefully the few of us waiting at port will catch one of these two on the next ride out

I made a similar comment a while ago when there was a bunch of quality control issues with cars coming out of Osnabrück. Honestly when you're spending this kind of money it's pretty pathetic to receive a car with unpainted areas like this. Does it affect the way it drives, no, but it's something I would notice every single time I looked at it.

I personally couldn't care less that those covered areas are unpainted.
My previous 981 GT4 was built in Osnabrück and it was perfect, as is the RS that replaced it.
I know of Zuffenhausen built RSs that had early break-in total engine failures. Covered by warranty of course. It happens...

Totally understand that it won't be an issue for all, but I'm unfortunately one of those people with a high attention to detail. Many times it has been a blessing, most of the time it's a curse... thanks OCD.

Fingers crossed. Looks like "Lake Geneva" is scheduled to arrive Emden 07/31 and bound for San Diego port 08/29 as well.

See the unpainted areas as weight savings. So the Osnabrueck cars will have a weight advantage
Another "Bump" on production complete date doe my PTS Oslo Blue GT4 RS ..( the 3rd time now) Went from originally to be finished in May, then June, July 19, now " Until the end of production Expected date: 8/16/24"
Same happened to me, yesterday I was notified that my production moved from 7/18/2024 to 8/16/2024, no PTS slot.
