Default PTS 2012 Cayman R

I am wondering how many 987.2 Paint to Sample Cayman R's were built? I know only 4 PTS 987.2 Spyders exist, so there cant be many R's. I came across a Stone Gray, Vesuvio Metallic, and Pastel Orange.

Also, it seems alot more standard colors were offered on the R than on the Spyder:

Peridot Metallic
Guards Red
Speed Yellow
Carrara White
Platinum Silver Metallic
Cream White
GT Silver Metallic
Black
Basalt Black
Dark Blue Metallic
Macadamia Metallic
Meteor Grey Metallic
Amethyst
Ruby Red Metallic

A vesuvio R was up for sale earlier this year (March-ish IIRC). Price was reasonable, IMO. It did not have buckets. I really wish I had had the means at the time to acquire it.

You can add GTS Red to your list of PTS Cayman Rs

It is, still enjoying it over a year later.

I also found a Viper Green PTS car in the UK, so at least 5 PTS Cayman Rs confirmed.

There was a non-metallic muted purple R with black trim when I was shopping for mine that I passed on. It was very nice looking, but low spec. Much lighter than your third pic.

There is also one PTS speed yellow Cayman R. It was made after speed yellow was discontinued as a PTS car. Sold on BAT last year.

Damn, I love that painted center console and proper hand brake. Wish my 981 had 'em.
