All the PTS cars I see always have the car keys in the same PTS color. Is this standard? Paying around $200K for a car and then paying another $365 to get your car key the same color is ludicrous.

And to think, it was the Cayanne that saved Porsche from going belly up - that and some post business graduates wanted to get rid of the 911 in the early 80s. Now that was a dumb idea.

Thanks all!

FYI - yes you must pay for the PTS key, you get TWO keys

I ordered the key pouch to match interior - you only get ONE sadly

The front spoiler does not have white details, it is just the reflection of the sun

Having the best 50th birthday trip!!!

Love it my birch green brother! I love the stitching!
It's such an amazing color in person isn't it?

I drive mine everyday. 10k miles already and not bored at all.

Happy 50th birthday!

I'll be in Italy this year when I turn 40....and no, you're not giving me any ideas.

We will both have a Birch Green TTS and Racing Yellow GT4 - brothers we are. Congrats on our 40th too! We did our family trip M5 ED last year in Italy.

Appreciate all your posts as well kyrocks.

I wonder what interior you both opted for. My guess only black works, no?

Thanks for comments! Black was the obvious choice but I have full Espresso with all the deviating yellow stitching, yellow gauges and seat belts. The vent slats are painted Birch Green. I will send some interior pics tomorrow.

That looks stunning.

Closest thing to BMW's Neon Green I've seen on a Porsche.

Henry,
Congratulations! Your TTS is a stunningly beautiful car; absolutely love the BG, and with the Espresso interior and the yellow stitching, it is amazing!
Hope your trip is working out well, too!
Cheers,
Martin

Thank you Martin. We fly home in the am. It was a great trip, no glitches at all - 3 countries.
I will get an organized post together like the other Canadians here soon
