Thank you! I like them as well, they aren't as "oversized" looking as 20", and they give a nicer ride. So far (50 miles) I like it.

Looking fantastic! Was it one of the 2018's held by the EPA? Mine is still waiting at the port in San Diego so I'm hoping you got one of the first off the ship and they have been released

No, it's one of the last 2017 models (with heavy discount). Good luck getting your car soon!

Maybe you've already seen one, but here's an Arena Red car that the Richmond VA dealer, Euroclassics, posted on Instagram.

Wow.

To be honest, most PTS colors are ugly to my eye. All too many of them are some hideous shade of green or something.

But that photo is really amazing. I like metallic reds, and that's the best metallic red I think I've ever seen.

I had a '98 C2S in Arena. Nice color, but if I were buying red today, I like Carmine better. IMHO.

I don't really understand what people see in Carmine Red. It's a little better than Guards Red, but still too light, and fairly bland. At least it doesn't say "pastel" the way Guards does to me.

I'd rather Amaranth Red, Ruby Red, or of course now Arena Red by a long shot.

To my eye, Carmine is the truest red I have seen on a Porsche. Arena was OK, but not what I would have ordered (I was 2nd owner of the C2S).

Just got an email from PCNA and my car is going to be loaded on the Splendid Ace on August 7th. ETA to RI on August 18th. Of course, I already looked up where the ship is at and it is in transit from RI to Emden now.

My Night Blue C4S coupe was offloaded in RI on August 2nd and will be at my dealer's lot in NH this weekend.
Plan to pick it up the next weekend. Getting XPEL on the front end. Total wait time, approximately 3 months.
