Yes, it would save me a few months wait, but I am sticking to Mexico. On its own Miami blue looked good, I just prefer the brighter blue.

Miami Blue FTW. Might be looking to swap my current allocation for a September.

Yes, have to see on in the flesh to be sure but that's no different than orange or purple.
I'd gamble on blue.

Does anyone know if Miami Blue is a PTS only color, or will it be an option like LO on 991s?

I don't think anyone knows what Porsche plans to do with Miami Blue. I wonder if the 3 extra colours are fast tracked because they tested them on the RS already when they were selecting paints. I wouldn't be surprised to see Miami on the 991.2.

I was told the 3 extra paints would be PTS price. On the Luxemburg configurer they show the 3 to be the same price as PTS.

Black and lava would be pretty sharp looking I think.

It's priced same as a PTS color and you must have ordered PTS in order to select it. Beyond that it's all semantics.

That black with orange interior looks great.

Yeah, things are getting weirder and weirder with PAG and paint colors.

It's going to be odd when new allocs for calendar year 2016 starts drop and all you can pick from is White, GT Silver, and Lava Orange.

I can't see anyone bothering to update a website to add three colours for a few people with confirmed PTS orders.

I wonder if it won't be possible to order these colours at some point. Some consideration for stopping true PTS. More so if they actually stop UV as well. I wonder if the computer would accept these paint codes.

Wonder if everyone that had requested PTS got their production date set or there has been some people missing out? These 3 colors could be for those that made a request but it didn't make the cut for some reason - considering you're supposed to have already requested PTS to be able to select one of these it seems odd to me why you would switch from one of the approved PTS colors to these.

I think to try and cut down the complication of the process as Porsche were overwhelmed by the PTS demand. I was told as I have PTS confirmed that I can have any std colour for my original build date, December, black, yellow, Miami, with a month delay or Mexico blue with up to 5 months delay. A reasonable incentive to go with one of the extra colours.
