Ahh just to point out that markets - and tastes for that matter - rather differ by country.....

7.1 GT3 RS in Green do re-sell at a distinct premium in the UK....only 11 apparently in country..and garner an uplift over the alternates.

BTW - I'd observe that the Germanics rather like the greens on their GT3's

Check out the first Targa I have seen in PTS 'Lichtgrün'. The black roof and stainless roll bar create the perfect contrast to a strong hue such as 'Birch Green'! I absolutely love it!

To my knowledge, 'Turquoise Blue' (3AS) not yet been approved on the 991/981. We saw 997's & other models of that era done in this beautiful color however...and it wouldn't surprise me if we see it custom ordered for the 991/981!

Not just gt3's. Historically, Germans have strongly liked 'green' in all kinds of things...including uniforms & Wehrmacht vehicles! Young Ferry got into trouble in the war when he asked that the first 'Ferdinand' (Panzerjäger Tiger Sd. Kfz. 184) be done in PTS 'Oak Green Metallic', color code 22L. As the story goes, the Waffen-SS objected and the color went back to it's designated 'Graugrün', code 7008 (see below). Personally, I would have gone for the 'Dunkelgelb nach Muster' and insisted on deviating stitching in the interior. But what do I know about authentic Blitzkrieg hues? Ferry almost landed in the Eastern Front for that stunt...rather than in the relative safety of Gmünd in the Austrian state of Carinthia at war's end. So PTS has a long tradition at Porsche...and has always been a bit dangerous to choose!

Have to agree with you on the targa. Looks better to me too. Works with the metallic contrast.

Do you have others pictures of the Dark Green RS 4.0?

I really likes dark green Porsche(s).

Not my cup of tea but it's very special colour.

As requested....believe the lower, black wheeled car was US based.

Thank you.

Eduardo - Just FYI...

Have a November build slot for a Cayman GTS (well..need something as a runabout)....enquired with respect to PTS..and was informed that "owing to unprecedented worldwide demand" the PTS window has been closed.

Seems someone has been making it easier for people to understand the process

Sadly, the Caymans were just recently opened up for PTS... But, the Cayman GTS was never part of that group. Perhaps if it stretches into MY2016 it'll be available (or when the 981.2's hit).

The Cayman GTS looks so good to me, though.

It is a nice color. Exorcist puke green and all..

Still in Europe with Autobahn Adventures and we were on our way from Austria to Germany on the Fernpass when I saw a new GT3 going the other way painted RS Green. Could not get a picture as he went by so fast. Seems like there are quite a few green cars over here. Will keep my eyes open for some more PTS colors.

Heh - the dark green 4.0 is in Zürich..
