Anyone know the color of that green metallic turbo?
'Python Green Chromaflair'




Very Expensive. Will only make 5 per year!

Great information and pics Termsheet. Thank you!

i particularly like your opening paragraph humbly mentioning: “I'm just a regular Porsche customer.“

i think many of us would love to have the same access you have had with PAG.

my pts rolled off the factory floor on Dec 8, can you share the dates you were there?

They were building them in Osnabruck when I was there in April 2015. It may be classed as a 2016 model but it really started build in 2015 model year.

JK, that was an awesome trip, we could have spent the entire day there at the "Exclusive" Center in Stuttgart.
You are a better photographer than I am but here are a few more pics.
I love the custom matching blue seats in the blue GT3, fantastic!

Let's hope we do indeed get to order PTS GT2RS's and do the Euro Delivery.....

Thanks for setting this appt up as well!!

I agree...my guess is that there will be a race version of the GT2RS and it could end up in GT4

Well that won't be the car for GT4 racing in 2019 for Porsche. It will be a 718 version for GT4.
