You should probably read Eduardo's thread on PTS. PAG has completely messed up on the whole process, so another story confirms the debacle occurring in the paint shop......kind of like the genius at Porsche that approved a color named "golf blue" thinking nobody could ever confuse it with one, if not, the most historical colors associated with Porsche racing...."gulf blue".

I guess there are a lot of people who like Gulf Blue
My day, and your car, will be just fine.
We've been fielding calls for this car since it arrived, from everywhere under the sun.

We have your back. Don't worry!

Just post some better pics of that great looking car though! Interiors as well! You're off the hook then.

Maybe Eduardo should edit his post! Maybe advertise a Panamera?

It's all Eduardo's fault! He got me all fired up with his PTS story! I came in, saw Gulf Blue, and went whacko!
Truly didn't mean to hint that there was ever any dealer error here, I thought I had made that clear in my OP that PAG screwed the pooch.
Just please let me take some more pictures of it with my REAL camera so that I can prove to Eduardo that I don't suck as a photographer!

A also wondered what the problem was while reading this thread.
As Z356 pegged it, it's Gulf Blue.
Gulf Blue requires Gulf Orange accents, other wise it's dull.
My 981 was to be Gulf Blue with Gulf Orange but Gulf Blue was not then approved so I ordered Mexico Blue and left the standard black accents. Mexico or Riviera, you choose, are very vibrants blues and close to each other.
Why didn;t the customer take delivery?-Richard

The client ordered "Golf Blue", not "Gulf Blue".

Perhaps there is another post or two that Eduardo should edit.

Rob, your post was very clear, thank you.

Or just let us know if the customer changes their mind, I'm sure you'll have a buyer on this thread (such as myself).
