PTS would be a must for me.

Thank You for those outside shots . I'm configured in Lava as it stands , but have had cold feet seeing some of the shots where it looked too pale . I'm relieved because I'm sure I could love it or GT Silver with the right accents . Better still would be PTS , but I think it won't be offered - or at least in the time frame that I'll need to decide .

My dealer still thinks my PTS order is looking good, until I hear otherwise it's PTS, but would be happy with UV or LO as well.

GT Silver looks pretty good to me especially with black accents.

David: I think it's damn close. From my observations and even some reports received (see SuperDarius post), Porsche Exclusive color designers utilized as a starting base a historic/vintage early 911 color ('Blutorange' & 'Royal Purple/Lilac') and then went up or down two shades to get a unique formulation! Porsche also did the same thing recently with the 60th Anniversary PCA 'Club Blau'. Took the vintage 'Acid/Bahama Blue' and changed it by two shades!

Dealer told me this morning that a limited number of PTS cars would be available starting in early 2016 but he does not know which PTS colors will be approved...speculated that it maybe 12 or so colors. PTS availability seems to line-up with what others are hearing as well.

White or GT Silver.

UV and Lava does not do it for me. UV looks like Barney and the Lava looks lighter than GR which is no good

Hello Guys,


From UAE, no PTS at the moment. Porsche Exclusive declined my color request : gulf blue, BRG, brewster green and signal yellow.

bad news, I am gonna pass the RS till PTS window is open...

Barney or washed GR are not OK for me

I would not pass on an allocation regardless of the color. If you decide to go for PTS, you might end up with none.

Thanks for the pics! I find Lava to be far more interesting in direct sunlight.

Now I'm confused as heck.

I already have a white GT3 in my garage so I can easily miss an allocation without any issue

I can't blame you and would do the same...
