If my conversion is correct, it's yours for $290k USD. The price of exclusivity with Golden Yellow Metallic PTS thrown in for "free."

Beautiful car.

Gee.....Another crap colour from Porsche. It will go down in history alongside Lime Gold Metallic which was an equally crap colour.

Meh this one isn't that bad, but not great either. If you're paying extra for a slightly upgraded car, why can't you get whatever color you want?

Hooray...a new wheel design!

Other than that...a faster, more expensive Turbo with obnoxious paint and stripes seems like the answer to a question nobody asked. Maybe it's just me...

It's you and me (but I suspect others as well)

Don't be so tough on the greatest sports car company in the world. It's only paint. Pick another color and move on.

They should be throwing this much carbon onto the GT cars as standard equip.

Growing up when I did, the 911 Turbo was the original Mack daddy poster car. Those days are long gone. Now the GT cars steal all the thunder. This is nice, and I'm sure when you add up all the CXX options it's probably not a bad deal, but it really does nothing for me. Maybe, since it's a numbered car, it'll hold its value better? Maybe? Otherwise....meh.

Those wheels are pretty sharp though.
