saffron yellow is not available for GT cars, at least that was the info from Porsche Exclusive in December. ai saw the sample next to sgnal, in a secend I would go with signal. such a great and rich color

Not sure about the US but PTS and CXX can not be ordered anymore. Only if you have a CXX item already in you build, you can change or add more. (this what I did last week). This for Germany, not sure about PCA.

But color? Like everyone said color is an emotional choice and for that much $$$ it better float YOUR boat not ours or a poll

I understand what you are saying.
my problem is that I never saw most of these colors in person. So what I am looking for is really thoughts of the people who saw these.

For example I know I like these light green colors, but I am looking for more insight and details about acid green or birch green. Like one of them looks more yellow under direct sun or one is darker than the other one or has a specific effect.

I am trying to understand these shades yellows, oranges and greens better. Maybe poll was a bad idea for what I am trying to achieve here.

OP , well thanks for this poll , my preference with black wheels as u wish would not be a dark color but some pop with yellow /acid/ orange . anyway this thread
as others poll threads, are entertaining with all the insightful opinions , and educating with color shade/names history and those with IT skill posting cool pics of
be loved cars in different flavors shades and crowd shouts on about dressing in wheel colors /stripes/threads /ac delete and really true junkies with radio delete
for total coolness and the banter goes around , for me i woke in the middle of the night from life's concerns and settle my self checking on some RL banter
and this thread sent me happily back to rest dreaming colors of winged P cars like a little kid , for me at the moment will remain a dream but still a happy one
Thanks Mr. OP and enjoy the game . if you're really lucky some Color Guard Umpires may guide you, keep an eye for the Chairman Edwardo .

Voted for Signal Yellow as it is more orange than other yellows (mango-like) and more yellow than other oranges (Gulf/Pastel which I personally find too saturated for my taste)

Is it the first time you are formally (i.e. in the system) requesting PTS? If so, it would likely be considered a n'ew order' and the PTS stop sale effective till Aug may apply. Check with your SA asap. Most if not all April PTS builds that I know of (incl mine) have locked already.

Like the Doc said. If you didn't have PTS or CXX on your build prior the stop order, you cannot get PTS/CXX now unless the allocation is scheduled for August or later this year (as per PAG). So that's that.

In July, standard colors like Graphite Blue Metallic, Rhodium Silver Metallic, and Sapphire Blue Metallic, will no longer be available. But you can still select them for you April build now, if you want.

Thanks I'll see what can be done........if not GT Silver or Carrera White......metallics seem to show off the curves better.......I like Gemini Blue and Azurro California Blue.........

Duh, there is only one color.

(see my signature)

Congrats on securing an allocation. Guess the question you have to ask yourself "Is there a color that you truly love so much that your willing to pay the extra $13K for it?". If yes, then you should already know that color and should have already seen in person to love it so much. It is extremely difficult to capture true color in a camera and personally i wouldn't take the risk of PTS based on the poll or even with anyone else's opinion. Last thing you want is to have your GT3 come out with a color shade you didn't expect. I was in the same boat as you and opted to go with one of the standard color that i truly love in person. Good luck!
