Reference Guide to PTS
#2800
Thank you for posting, Bad! When you get
a chance, ask that dealer to double-check if
that Macan is really 'Fayance Yellow', the old
& stunningly beautiful hue of the Carrera GT.
The reason I say that is because as of a few
months ago (spring of 2016), PAG showed
'Fayence Yellow' as 'not available' on
their approved PTS list:
***
German dealers are not the only one displaying
colorful PTS Macans this summer. Here is one
at my new local dealer in North Scottsdale. I
didn't ask...but I think it's 'Viper Green'.
***
Melissa Witek told me last August at the Porsche
Zentrum at Quail during the Historics that she had
ordered a 'Viper Green' Macan as a demo show car
for 'Porsche Exclusive' for the East Coast. I am
certain this is that car Melissa talked to me about.
Now, after a year of 'service' at PCNA 'Porsche
Exclusive' for shows & dealer demonstrations,
it was probably put to auction to their dealers
by PCNA (it's a MY2016 so they needed to move
it!) & was picked up by the Penske dealership
here in North Scottsdale!
It was meant to showcase various (& unusual)
options dealers & customers could spec on a
Macan. And that accounts for the abnormally
high Monroney sticker!

Eduardo, many thanks for continuing to educate us and dispel the myths.
That is one heavily optioned Macan!
For us PTS newbs that stumble onto one at a dealer, is the paint code shown anywhere on the sticker or do we have to look at the body tag?

Body color looks Birch. I don't think Acid Green was ever available as PTS exterior for non-918 cars? Also interesting to see no "Porsche" script on the calipers. Evidence of custom job?
