I don’t speak German, but did he say “Bahama yellow” at around 0:13?

I did CC and turned on automatic translation and it translates as "Signal Yellow". However, I've seen signal yellow and it is fairly orange for a yellow, but definitely not this color. So, I don't know if he is just guessing.

He said he asked and they told him it's Signal Yellow. Which it is definitely not. Tells you no matter the country info coming from a dealer is most likely bs.

Agreed. Unless the sunlight is messing with the camera's white balance like crazy, that is Pastel Orange.

Too bad your salesperson didn’t catch that at the beginning and propose the change. Hopefully you won’t experience the order change penalty.
Even stranger that it was standard on the 718 Spyder but not 718 GT4... and now an option on the Spyder RS.

I purposefully did not order it. I prefer the cleaner wartless look... and the SRS isn't about track times for me. My SRS resale is already plagued due to no WP 🙄. Built it for me.

being able to leave out the dumb clock on dash is a blessing on gt cars. I try to avoid it whenever given the chance

I love the sports chronograph clock on GT cars. I do agree that it looks out of place in a porsche suv, panemera, regular 911. Boxster/Cayman, and particularly the Taycan.

however I think it add to the “race car” look on Porsche GT cars.

I love the look of the Sports Chrono in the GT cars, Spyder and Spyder RS included!
