Wondering if that dealer was Auto Gallery because they are trying to get $400k for their UV which is collecting dust on their showroom floors. Stealerships know nothing!

Nice combo! I tried to get in on the yellow stitching option when it was first discussed here on RL, but my build lock date was a few days earlier on 1 Nov. So I'll be going with the "1 of a kind" LO interior (belts & stitching), UV exterior combo.

Yellow... gonna be SICK.

We'll never see it this side of the world. PMNA seems to have gone extra length with PAG to order special colors. Porsche China doesn't bat an eyelid--no PTS on this car, whatsoever.

Well said, like blue-violet wild flowers in the Hill Country. Such a great colour.
