Default 991 Ducktail in Yellow

I was just fooling around with the configurator and came up with my Dream Build.
I hope you enjoy it!

Okay - how did you do that? I haven't been able to do this on the site. Must be doing something wrong or not seeing the correct subdirectory????

Ducktails are so awesome. Great option and excellent taste.

FYI: I saw a yellow 991 in person at Rennsport Reunion and it looked great... but you should know that it is a brighter yellow than the "Speed Yellow" that has been a standard color during the last decade or so. The new yellow on the 991 looks more acidic and lemony... and generally brighter than the old speed yellow. It looks great, I actually prefer it.

This car really has a strong Panamera resemblance, even outside. On this photo far closer to the Panamera than to its 80's cousin parked alongside:

For some reason, the 991 looks better to me in yellow than the 997 did. Is it the exact same yellow?

I really like this car!

No it is not the same color yellow as Speed Yellow. The new color, Racing Yellow, is brighter.

looks nice, I like the motorsports front bumper on the op's created version. Nice ducktail

I cant beleave that nobody bought the yellow PTS 997rs yet, mind you it is a bit pricy at Porsche of Fairfield web site for $184,440

May I ask how you get the alternate view of your build in the configurator?

It's not the same yellow. The 997 is Speed Yellow and has a bit more mustard from what I can tell. The 991 is Racing Yellow and seems to be a little lighter and also brighter.
