I'd wait an extra month or two.

You'll have even more time after delivery looking at the silvers wondering why didn't I get the black???

You know, under normal circumstances, I'd completely agree with you. I think these would look fantastic in Black LED's (I previously had another 991 with Black HID's and they were fantastic looking). But, sadly, this time, I weighed the situation and decided I wanted this specific car sooner.

I've got others that I'm waiting on, that I'd get with Black LED's, etc... Those, I'm less eager to get soon, and more eager to get perfect (i.e., they'll be PTS colors*).

* I had to do Sapphire Blue on my GTS since I wasn't willing to wait for the PTS window. Granted, I love Sapphire. It's hot. It's awesome. But, it's not Maritime Blue, or Mexico Blue, or Chartreuse.

Sigh, its tough, but I have a suspicion that the PTS windows are going to get harder and harder to secure over time ... not impossible, just difficult!

lichtgren anyone?

Indeed. Hopefully my patience pays off for future Porsches. I'm usually completely fine waiting for the cars later in the run (in fact, I usually prefer later builds). This particular one (the GTS), however, will be taking on daily driver duties. Otherwise, I'd be waiting for the window to open in June/July (I can't remember when Brett told me it'd likely reopen).

Birch Green is hot. I'm partial to Chartreuse / Lime Green (226), though.
