Default Jet Black 991 GT3 any pics?

Has anyone taken delivery of a Jet Black car that can post a picture?
I can't find any images on the web and need a new screen saver while I await delivery.

As far as I know, they've just begun to make the 2015 cars. Several weeks will pass before we see a Jet Black GT3 in the US. Probably see pics of euro cars sooner.

It has more of a 'blue hue' compared to Basalt Black Metallic. Basalt is more grey.

No. Basalt black looked like dirty black to me. This is, as the name implies, true jet black. It's a beautiful deep black. You can only see the metallic flecks when parked in bright day light and when you are close. In the garage or at night from a few feet, it is simply, well, jet black. I never cared for basalt black but love the jet black. I tried to take a picture of my Panamera but couldn't really get anything meaningful. You will have to see it.

Love it. You can notice the blue hue which I really do like. Basalt gave a grey hue and I prefer the blue hue
