If the rumors on here are true that June 2018 factory builds are in fact a 2019 model year car, then you having that late of a build at least has a silver lining!

Right. Allocation through December --> eligible for PTS (but your build gets moved back into the build window), anything later than December for your allocation, Nein PTS.

I understand this is somewhat different than in the past.

A higher MSRP is not really a silver lining.

Has it been confirmed that Jan '18 and later allocations are not eligible for the ZPT request / PTS?

Waiting out the eclipse at the Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon, and on Rennlist, something's wrong with me!

I highly doubt that MY 2019 for GT3 starts in June, more likely it stays MY 2018 through December. My personal opinion is that there are more allocations coming but regardless the PTS capacity will fill up with this current round of allocations.

I hope you get the PTS approved, but you should realize your luck would be improved with Maritime Blue

I was going back and forth between Maritime and Golf Blue...really a hard choice but I think I picked Golf Blue because it's a close cousin to Voodoo blue.

Right away if there is availability and nothing wrong with your order for PTS.

Can you guess which is Golf Blue without cheating and looking at the second image?

I guessed wrong....I picked the one that was Voodoo Blue. I knew that Golf Blue was darker than Voodoo though.

This was taken indoors so take them all with a grain of salt... aways varies with lighting conditions.
