I have a feeling Brewster, Irish and Oak green are going to be rather common, and even STILL worth the premium plus all day, everyday...but yes, there are going to be a LOT of PTS cars compared to the 991 gen.

It's not like you'll see yourself daily in a 992 GT3 - still pretty rare bird.

However I want a PTS for me - not to impress others - as I am completely bored of the standard colors being offered.

Porsche just doesn't lead on colors compared to say Jaguar LR or hell even Mazda has amazing paint choices!

That's actually a great idea!. I will wait to see it in person and what they offer in terms of wrapping at the ED location.

I think PTS used to be Special but I think it’s only special if the color means something to you. There are a lot of PTS colors that are just plain Fugly. I had the hardest time selling my PTS 2018 Speed Yellow Touring. I had no idea so many people Didn’t like Yellow. I guess there’s a reason only 1.9% of 911’s are yellow.
Now I’m having a hard time picking a color for my new Touring and I’m all over the place. I really like Carrara White Metallic. I just wish it was PTS so I knew it was Special and not just plain old boring white

My 991.2 touring was Carrara White Metallic. It was a tremendous color. I think it fits with the touring perfectly.

that’s interesting.

I have it on my Taycan Turbo and I find it is not as brilliant as I would have liked it to be.

Signal Yellow would be my choice if I was lucky enough to get a PTS order. Nice work!

I have to admit Signal Yellow is probably the one that would sway me.

Thx. Difference between my car and his is Im doing black PCCB. The yellow on the brake pads doesnt match the Signal Yellow. Also, Im doing 18 ways instead of buckets. But god damn that color looks hot!!

I’m trying to join the Signal Yellow crew as well. Black PCCBs as well but with buckets and PDK. We won’t be exactly the same.

I think Signal Yellow is the exception and I love that color too. It almost has an orange color to it and not the bright bright yellow of Speed or Racing Yellow.
I think everyone loves Signal Yellow and several people who were interested in my Touring wished it was Signal.
