In my opinion, all of these photographs (above) of the Porsche
PTS color 'Viper Green' missed their mark substantially & by a
wide margin. In general, I do not trust photographs of PTS
colors on the internet, even those I myself post. They often
'lie' or 'misrepresent'. And the above photographs are a prime
example of 'misrepresentation' of that beautiful, rich & historic
Porsche hue called 'Viper Green'!

Thanks Eduardo. Those photos sure look a lot different. My initial impression of the first few from PH was that it almost looked like mint green! Great to see H82BL8's car again!

Spotted in Dusseldorf, so likely the same Viper green RS.

More likely it's 'Sternrubin/Ruby Star':

Ok fine. Fleetmon was way off on their prediction of Panama Canal in 16 hours yesterday. (I'm just the messenger!) It's now saying Panama Canal in 18 hours. Here is the latest.

15 hours... according to the most recent update. Perfect - get up at 3am to watch a ship go through the canal. Although you could see it at the miraflores locks tomorrow morning or early afternoon if all goes well. I don't know why, but I'm now enthralled with this ship's voyage.

Good luck to all of you with cars on the way! Calm seas and smooth sailing!

And thanks Eduardo for the colour of the Dutch car. I couldn't tell what it was.
