i am also in the camp that found the offered colors boring and the 991.2 GT3 touring ticked every box for me and was a dream car so i was thrilled to get PTS! i chose 22L oak green metallic to match a 964 C4 i also own in 22L.. (i didn't expect to see so many other 991.2 cars also ordered in 22L)

 

love that color, think this is it? One of my fav colors on a speedster.

 

They all drive the same regardless of color. But finding a color that makes you excited each time you walk up to the car is priceless...does not have to be PTS though. For my R it was not....for my Speedster it was

 

No, since the 991.1 was not offered in PTS except for a really small window before the production hold, there aren't many at all except for a limited run of 30 PTS in 3 colors. I am referring to NA cars only.

I would not be surprised if your car was one of one of the 991.1 GT3's.

 

Yes, I think over the long term PTS holds its value over standard colors simply because of the scarcity. People like to be able to say "This is only 1 of ___ in the country etc." There are a ton of GT cars out there so having one that is just a little different is pretty cool.

 

The price of PTS is somewhere between 4-8% of the car's purchase price depending on which model. It's less $ than PCCB's and LWB's together. Doesn't seem like it should really matter whether it's a value or not. As stated above, it's like the bowling alley in the basement. For some will be a positive, some a negative, and some inbetween. It's something you spec out (or seek used) for your benefit only, not with any consideration for future value. PTS unto itself is no longer exclusive enough to bring any "rarity", although a particular color may be. But unless you're talking about an R in a historic color relevant to the original R's, I can't see it as any kind of value driver.

 

Thanks! I've been able to track down 2 other Riviera Blue .1 GT3s in NA, which 3 colors were the 30 made in?

 

There was a 2015 Rivera Blue delivered to Hennessy Porsche in ATL, it was my buddies car traded for a 2016 Mexico Blue GT3RS.

 

I paid more for a used GT3 in voodoo blue. I like it and it was worth the $5000 or so that it cost me.

 

you show great taste sir!

 

Said another way,
"do you appreciate PTS or does PTS cause your car to appreciate?"

 

Arena Red Metallic, Fashion Grey and Viper Green.

Looks like several cars built in your color- it’s a popular PTS color and looks great!

 

Answer: yes.

 

you have a special car my friend.

 

Only if I can get Ruby. I would do anything for Ruby.
