Well, to do PTS, better start thinking MY2015. The PTS window for MY2014 is closed! But regardless, you can request PTS 'Iris Blue' & take your chances with the required feasibility study. Or take a look again at the currently approved PTS list. I expect the next one, which should be available by June of '14, will have even more colors approved for Paint-to-Sample!
Don't know if 'Champagne' leather is unavailable due to new tanning regulations. Where did you read that? But Leather-to-Sample is available through 'Porsche Exclusive' & you can inquire if a current version of 'Champagne' is available. Problem with L-to-S is that all interior plastic trim (speakers, ventilation, etc) defaults to 'Black' in any custom leather interior. So you live with it in 'Black'...or cover it up with leather for extra $. But it can be done if you don't have a limited budget. Do plan to use your local guy to 'black-out' the Targa roll bar. I don't think that will be a factory option anytime soon! Good luck with that project - it should be a pretty interesting build!

I was thinking 2015 anyway, hoping there will be a factory dark Targa hoop option by then and the updated 918/Macan style multi-function sport steering wheel

and good luck getting any referrals or respect from medical colleagues if you show up the first day fresh after residency in a car thats newer , faster or more expensive than theirs ...they 'll assume you are a spoiled rich kid who doesnt need the business

Suzy, I love this color, but the PTS guide shows color code Y97 as Silberstein/Silver Stone. Do you know which is correct?

it's Slate Gray or Schiefergrau (615, 6401, 6601, 6801). The guy in Geneva told me one of those code. It's close but a little bit lighter than the graphite of the 911-50.

OK. I have to ask......what medical school are you enrolled in? I drive my 911/50 to the hospital. The chief of plastic surgery drives his 2010 911TT to work. One of the surgeons I work with has a Ferrari that he never brings to the hospital.....he drives his beater.....an ML63 AMG.

How about a 991 in 'Grasshopper Green' for 011??? Studgarden- Better close you eyes! Its that 'hideous' color you hate and I love...'Lichtgrün/Birch Green'! But I'll also post one in 'Brewster Green' since you like the dark tones! Both photos were taken during my trip to Zuffenhausen last April!
