Congrats! I saw that and reposted on my Instagram story. When you see a PTS touring, they don’t last long! There are a few olive tourings where I know the owners (from insta or here or one local) and they are all enthusiastic. I have Auratium so I call olive the “other green” — . If you have not seen it in person, Olive is really stunning and it goes really well with yellow accents.

A friend of mine saw it on IG and called me right away. I called the dealer within 5 mins of it hitting IG and we put a deal together. I knew had mere minutes to grab this as the entire PTS Porsche market is on fire these days. I had inquired about a viper green Touring in Connecticut that was sold quite a while ago. Super high end outfit and the dealer told me that they never received more inquiries about ANY car then the Viper Green Touring that they sold. They sell every exotic etc just to show you how unique these Tourings are. I am taking delivery next weekend I believe. I would love to see some photos of your "Green" Touring. Please do post when able.
Enjoy yours in good health.

In my experience, there's absolutely positively no truth to this statement. However, these cars are built by humans and they are not all the same, even across similar models.

It would make sense because the Tourings have dual cone filter intakes whereas the GT3/RS use the same flat style filter as every other 991.1 Carrera. Cone style filters make noise.

Here is Auratium since you asked.

Next to olive they are a lot more different than they seem in pics.
