Petrol? Toto, we are not in Scotland anymore!

The interesting bits of re: this PTS color have been discussed at this other forum thread for several days now. Suggest to some to read it and comment on it. I am waiting for clarification before posting the final chapter here.

Ok, that sort of helps. I found the wing(s) on my car. That was not that hard to locate (first photo). But darn it...I couldn't find the bonnet! And I do love bonnets (second photo)!

I might start using 'Google Translate', Laddie, to understand you posts from now on!

They told me Ruby Red Metallic (code M3X) but it looks to me more like Grandma's Red Velvet!

1) oops sorry, i have my avatars turned off... anyway, thats no excuse!!!!
2) hmm...tough to argue that one BUT here's my personal opinion, maybe drive both (X51 and non-) and see if its worth it?
3) we're here to spend your money

It is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying event — either experiencing it or witnessing it. For me it happened when I visited my first Porsche dealer and I saw rows upon rows of bland 'Black', 'White' and...especially 'GT Silver' cars for sale! Oh, the humanity! How could these dealers order just these limited colors? In any case, Porsche has come up with a solution to this condition and offers it via their PTS 'holistic program' to us select few! Any more questions?
