This photo was supposedly shot at Zuffenhausen's Exclusive Room in the past week. Miami Blue (center) against Viper Green and a bunch of the usual suspects.

Miami Blue for the win.

You are the man, Nizer! Well, it's actually 'Blueflame' photo from Rennteam. But Nizer brought it to us...and that counts!

The Wailing Wall shot.



Looks to me like top left 'Voodoo Blue'; top right 'Ultraviolet'.
Bottom left 'Riviera Blue'; bottom right 'Mexico Blue'.
Center : the New 'Miami Blue' vice color!

But 'Blue Flame' at Rennteam claims the top right is 'Maritime'. Interesting.



For the record, here is a photo of factory 'Maritime Blue' against a 'Mexico Blue' gt3 in Calgary, Canada



I am not too sure that is right. Still looks to me like 'Ultraviolet' on the wall. I'll double check on Friday when I am at 'Porsche Exclusive' in Zuffenhausen!

Default 'Also sprach Zarathustra', Nietzsche & PTS...

As promised by Barbara Boeckenhoff (Manager, Porsche Exclusive - Personal Design PCNA), today I received the following information from Melissa Witek, whom we all have to thank for her dedicated service to customers on issues of PTS & 'Exclusive' options. I also want to thank Ms. Barbara Boeckenhoff for her assistance in these matters and arranging for my visit with 'Porsche Exclusive' in Germany.

I have decided not to attempt any analysis of it, but reported just as I received it. Like Nietzsche, I am trying to be philosophical about it!

Saludos,
Eduardo

PS I depart tomorrow for Germany and have a tour of the factory on Thursday July 16th and a luncheon & afternoon session with 'Porsche Exclusive' executives on a Friday July 17th. I will report on those at a later date. I am also trying to arrange for a tour of the Porsche Leipzig production facility on Monday, July 27th.

*************************************************************

To make it easier to read, my questions to 'Porsche Exclusive' are in 'red'. Melissa's responses are in 'blue'.

Nice color. UV still wins better for me. Miami with black wheels might be my 2nd choice. Mexico better yet if PTS was still around.

+1 UV is fun, but the Miami blue is something that would also work for me!

As far as some noise say, those are made in a Toyota Turkish factory.
Then who pays what to who with the backing of who is another story that I won't dare commenting.

Well, since the Iraqi government (Prime Minister) admitted that their forces abandoned 2300 new Humvees (USA gifts) recently I am sure the ISIS forces are getting the best discount possible on all of their certified military products!

I wouldn't want ride around in those much if I were them. They are likely to meet a Blackhawk helicopter.
