No. In theory Exclusive could do it but leather to sample is major $$$ and likely need some VIP status to make it happen. There was a late build RS with LTS and it sounded like created a bit of an uproar.

Seems like LO would be the intro color, which doesn't look as good on this as the RS in my opinion, but that's based on these lower quality photos. The rear scoop does seem very large...almost out of proportion. Curious to see the finished product. Despite complaints, I'm in haha

Would love for a green to be available as a non PTS color whether it was jet green metallic, brewster green, Irish green, olive green, british racing green, oak green or etc. The 991 Rs in PTS many have went with green

Chalk is also nice close to a Fgray or a sport classic gray

If the color choices are just like the ones on the configurator now for 991.2 GTS then i'd probably go with mahogany

It seems strange that they are being so vague still at this point.

"Power as passion is a key feature of the third world premiere in the form of a motorsport-derived two-seater, which creates an intensive connection between everyday driving and the racetrack."

Porsche recognizes it created a problem with the PTS option. Each year more and more buyers are opting for PTS which should send a message to Porsche. Their standard colors do not excite or interest their base. Nevertheless, Porsche to discourage PTS keeps rising the price and requiring delayed delivery hoping it deters buyers from ordering it. This is a case where Porsche is not listening or does not want to listen.

Not a fan of lava salmon. Hope they launch it in Miami blue. And offer UV as standard. Such amazing colors.

Nick, you mean deliveries? I suspect I'll be able to spec one within the next couple weeks.
