- other known PTS cars from same dealer have been written to formerly stating put back to Dec build and march delivery....

I really don't mind when I get my car - I just find it amusing PAG can't tell me when!

Anyone else same?
Not same but confusing nonetheless.
- PTS confirmed early with October build
- Moved to July build
- Told car would ship August 7
- Car went into production in July as planned
- Aug 7 date came and went without shipment
- Told earlier this week car has been completed
- Expecting it to ship Sep 18

I suspect there are factors beyond what we know that make the forecast difficult and almost random.

But it will happen!

From this years batch of PTS, the dealer did mention 3 PTS going into production.

1 car which has been ordered by you and 2 of our cars. We have production dates of December2015 and delivery in February 2016 for both cars.

When we had our PTS confirmed by the factory our production dates did not change. The dealer did did confirm that it will stay a December production.

It looks like Miami blue is confirmed as a special colour for the 991.2. Graphite blue and gt silver are regular metallic paints now as well.

Very interesting news. I kind of wish they'd reserved a few more of the RS colours for that car only. I'm guessing UV may be the only one left now. That would make the UV RSs very special if so.

I'm personally quite disappointed that LO was not kept for the GT3 RS (for at least a bit longer). I saw non-RS LO cars in the US before the first RS touched US soil!

Default 'Graphit Blau Metallic'...

I spotted & photographed the color 'Graphit Blau Metallic' during my visit to Leipzig in late July & reported it here on Rennlist.
I believe it was the first time this color was discussed as possible new hue for Porsche! I am glad they finally have announced
it's a new color in the Porsche 991 palette! You will also see it on the 981!

So.. have finally bitten the bullet and changed my spec from Mexico blue to MIAMI blue. Having stared at various pictures for weeks and weeks I've decided that I really like the colour, from the pics I took vs the Mexico blue cayman, to Eduardo's pics and other sample pics too. It also means that I go from a potential 5 month delay for Mexico Blue to a 1-2 month delay for Miami, so Feb/March delivery next year hopefully. I have attached the screenshot of the various snaps of the colour, will have to wait and see what it looks like when it arrives!

Either colour most would be happy. Congrats.

and then id like to throw my own personal tracking beacon inside for its trip here.
Signal green will be epic. I drove the RS at silverstone PEC on Monday.. all I can say is WOW. Massive thanks to Barry Horne for instructing.

Awesome! Really looking forward to seeing Miami! Especially after all the conjecture about what it'll look like.

Sadly, all I've been seeing is more PTS delays again. I don't really care at this point as my RS is out to Feb now - would rather it be March. My Targa PTS order has been pushed 3-4 times now as well and is a Dec delivery when it was originally late Sep after going V215 in April...

Ugh. That sucks. I wonder what gives with all the delays. I mean they've already severely restricted pts availability to very low numbers. You'd think they'd be prepared to build the few allocations given in a reasonably normal timeframe... Puzzling.

I am in the same boat, at this stage, the closer to spring the better off it is. Who wants to take delivery in the northeast in the late fall or winter?
Hopefully end of first quarter which makes it ideal for driving. What shade did you select for your RS. Signal Green?
