It's some kind of special design edition. They were showing up at dealerships across the country a few months ago. The interior package painted really clashes with the interior colors. Not quite sure wtf Porsche was thinking. Had to get rid of all those extra gallons of Miami Blue paint?

Yep, saw them both a few weeks ago. Awesome colors!

Or Los Angeles... given the UCLA Bruins and their powder blue uniforms.

_S15: Are you sure you are not confusing the
'Miami Blue' Targa 4S with the 'Exclusive Design
Edition' Targa 4S in PTS 'Etna Blue' that was
introduced a short while back:



https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/prod...ion-12793.html

*
I don't recall a recent 'Special Design Edition'
in 'Miami Blue'.

Oh, here we go! Dewinator, pm your address
so that I can have a coalition of us 'pastel' PTS
afficionados, along with the LGBT community of
the Castro District, demonstrate in front of your
house. Our group is called 'Fair Play for Pastel'.
And no, Lee Harvey Oswald was not involved
ever with our group!

Why is your group protesting? You don't think it's good that people have a wide range of color preferences and personal tastes? I think it's fabulous.

The group interpreted your comments
(see below) as a form of micro-aggression
towards residents of the Bay Area with
a taste for 'pastel alternative colors'
which is often associated, in the less
'progressive' regions of America, with
their particular alternative sexual
orientation!

I tried to tell them you were only kidding...
but this particular bunch lacks a sense of
humor! But don't worry. The protest will
only last an hour & they have agreed to
re-decorate your house or apartment as a
gesture of goodwill after their brief, albeit
loud, demonstration! Hopefully, you like
the color 'Lavender'! It's not too pastel-ly
in my humble opinion! It's big with them!

Well! Since I happen to live in the Bay Area and also like the color Lavender, maybe you're the one that needs to check your prejudiced micro-aggressions! Hehe

Also the hair dressor in that picture looks very shocked, did something happen to his Ferrari California?

You see! The group's fast action response
has already gotten results & made you aware
of your inner love for 'Lavender'. We are
making progress!

I already went to a mandatory one-week
re-education & rehab boot camp at the
San Fran Presidio just before I moved out
of the state in 2016. So don't worry about
me. I have loved the 'alternative pastel colors'
for a while!

Yes, Ferrari announced the new 'Portofino'
as a replacement for his current 'California T'
& he is very upset! Feels let down by the
marketing folks at Maranello...sort of how
911R owners felt yesterday with the news
from the IAA in Frankfurt!

PS It's 'hairdresser'...but we prefer you used
the term 'hair stylist'!
