I love the stripes but otherwise I'm just not feeling it too much

I'm certain that seeing it in the flesh is worthwhile.

Great car I'm sure. But I just have a hard time getting past the "Pirates of The Carribean" Gold color.

That was the main reason I passed on this. Had an allocation for one but went with a Guards Red TTS that in my opinion is more appealing despite the 20 HP deficit.

Standard factory Powerkit gives more HP:

So this is Saffron Yellow Metallic color, I dig the color for sure. What is interesting is that this color is now available in the configurator.

I will take non-yellow colored pccb calipers; finally it has happened

This is not saffron yellow. Different color.

Interesting that it comes with screens for the grills from the factory. Is the power kit available separately from Porsche?

Car looks great in Carrara white, agree the gold could be a bit much. Top speed is 213mph, so the hp increase is likely underrated. Torque overboost is always on as well.

I didn't know there was a power kit for the TTS. IS it also available for 991.1?

I saw this while on its tour and that color is probably the ugliest color I have ever seen on a car.

The cab will be coming out and a buddy is getting that in black w/black top that should look awesome.
