I usually never bother to comment, but your choice of that muted cool grey with the espresso interior, plus the highlighted green stitching is simply outstanding! Super good taste on so many levels, congrats!
Love the color, a kind of retro look. Think I recall seeing one of the 50th cars in that PTS. The black aero-spoiler etc just adds that extra pizzazz. Enjoy it
V nice. I almost did Espresso with my Fashion Grey build. Looks great. Next time…
I bet that would be stunning! Always another build.

Yes, PTS in particular seems to come with some issues consistently.

A quick polish before you PPF & Ceramic coat and you're good.
Indeed. If you take a good look at the paint it has more issues than it should but I expected that given reports of others with PTS. Almost should be PTSD!

Oooh, nice. I look forward to seeing that one.

I have two small suggestion since I am a bit OCD about color scheme:
The steering wheel doesn't look right with the black airbag and black trim (which stands out especially since steering wheel rim is brown. You can fix this by:
1) Getting an Espresso brown leather airbag
2) Replacing the black trim with silver trim on the steering wheel.
I hear you. But, I prefer to keep the bright work to a lower level. And as far as the black trim bits such as the airbag cover, there are plenty of other black cabin components that make this not noticeable to me (at least yet). Once I live with it I might change my mind. Thanks for input.

Thank you and yes there was many random nights and different versions I went through in deciding a lot of these details. Some items I wasn't aware of and my salesman and the Exclusive person at the dealership helped direct me. In the end an allocation came available and I had to get in the build within 24 hours. Fortunately we were given the ability to change a few items a day later and that was it! I was going to do leather interior package instead of CF but with the CF mats (another last minute addition) it seemed appropriate.

Appreciate your comments. Thank you

Probably the best I have seen.
And I thought "Fifty Shades of Grey" was $exy.
Looks like this "Shade of Nardo Grey" is a winner.
Enjoy.
P.S. Let me know if you ever decide to sell this one.
Many thanks. This one is planned a keeper. I would love to see the greys come together some time.

There is a similar color exclusive to the 50th but is metallic. It is a retro look in this shade but perhaps updated from the Fashion Grey. Many thanks.
Wow! Spectacular build! I love everything about it - Nardo, Acid Green sticking against the brown, black aero kit, etc. As I ponder the details of my own build, this has provided some great input for thought. Congrats on a great build and hope you enjoy it to the fullest!
Just arrived, my 2017 991.2 PTS Turbo S. Started talking with dealer over a year ago. Took an extraordinary amount of time to get an allocation. When I got the call that I had one available I had only a day to get order together. Fortunately I had gone over the build many times.
Car looks fantastic! Couldn't be happier with the color inside and out. Paint needs correction and PPF. Exhaust mod is a must as well. Window tint. Maybe some other changes.
Nardo Grey
Black Aero Kit
Espresso leather
Acid Green deviated stitch
Beautiful combo! Does Nardo hide dust etc as well as GT Silver? Went from Black to GT Silver. Life changer since I live off of a dirt road. Would love to go Nardo on my next one if so.

Lots of fun putting this one together. More to come. Stay tuned!

Can't answer yet on the tolerance to dirt and dust. I'll let you know. Love to wash the car too so there's plenty to enjoy.
