You mean Mexico is darker than Riviera? It could very well be the lighting. It’s tagged “Mexico Blue” by a guy who works there detailing the incoming cars. Here is a GT2RS Mexico Blue at the same dealer taken at a different spot.

Would’ve guessed standard pallete color Miami blue from that photo.

This has been the case for the past month or two at least. Ridiculous, especially on something like a base Cayman. VW is doing 40 colors for $2500 on the golf R...

I thought he was asking if it was Lapis's car. Not the color. Lapis had a Mexico blue touring coming.

Final details for my delivery coming up next week in Leipzig- we leave Friday and pickup on Tuesday! What a long journey it's been.

Schedule:
Berlin
Leipzig
Creasigns for PPF while we spend a day in Hamburg
Hallstat, Austria for three days- visit Gmund and other places
Italy Dolomites two days
Open (not sure! maybe Interlaken)
Provence, France- French Riviera
Stuttgart Drop-off and home

Two weeks (I'll create a delivery blog)- should be a blast. No, not visiting any racetracks- only tracking I'll do is in Leipzig with Porsche's cars. I do enough racing during the year and as much as I want to see the tracks in Europe, my car won't be tracked so I'll leave that for another visit.

One week to go!!

Mint is nice, I would think Jade aka hellgrun aka lighter green would look great on a touring too. I wonder if anyone ordered Jade? It was on my shortlist.

Not enough green for Miami. It's a much lighter color than that.

yes that is my car. Arrived today at Porsche Beachwood. Visiting there to see it Thursday to evaluate the stripes I ordered before they’re installed. Should have the car in my hands by sometime next week after Greg Castell, who works there (aka Flat 6 Photowerks) does justice to it photographically.

Montaya you can mark as delivered.

It’s Mexico Blue with chrome trim, standard silver xenon headlights, Standard black full leather interior, silver belts, with CXX bucket seats with black/silver houndstooth, piping in Olympic Blue, and “touring” logo script in the headrests instead of GT3.
