Thanks for the input so far . . . a keep the opinions coming please.
A couple of things - I don't believe that you can get the interior painted to a PTS color, but I'll ask the Exclusive people. Same with interior stitching. Fwiw, I'll probably end up with CF trim as the standard aluminum is a bit too "standard" for me. And btw, I don't "want" to spend stupid money, I just know that I'm going to.

arena red was a std metallic in the 993 era, so there were a lot of them around
as with all std colors, they became "mehhh " when seen so often
the public will just see it as " rental car metallic burgundy " , IMO
if you are paying $ 5500 extra for a 991 PTS, don't get a color that looks like it could come on a new SUV from Kia , imo

Dark green is a timeless colour, its been around for close to a century so its become a part of furniture as opposed to a passing phase, my only doubt s that porsche won't do it so it would have to be something close if possible.

I'm not a fan of "timeless" colors, I don't think going with 'classic' works on the new cars ... might as well put some faux wood panelling in it ... leave the classic colors/styles to the classic cars where they belong.
YMMV
p.s
What else am I going to say - owning a Mexico Blue GT3?
p.p.s
I wont mention the old chestnut of "resale" either... oops I just did ... sorry

IMO, there is no better looking car then any TT in Arena Red!

993 C2S and C4S were predom silver,though
intro ads do influence buyers , like the Arena Red 993 Turbo and the current Carmine Red Boxster and Cayman GTS s

PS: I was promised yesterday by 'Porsche Exclusive' representatives that they would send me the latest PTS approved list. I will post that as soon as it's received!
