Aside from P1 solving the issue, is there a way to desensitize that damn thing? My pax harness alone is enough to trigger the stupid seatbelt warnings, even when I connected all of it up so it is barely touching the seat.

Now this is an awesome config!!! Great job!

I'm biased, i had a Ford Taurus in that same Yacht blue, no further said my last Ford and yacht blue vehicle ever... silver, green, crimson, anything else...

Beautiful color combo. Love the interior on this one!

Thanks Ray.

Side note, I met Brendan Loehr this past weekend at COTA and he said your GT3 was the blue one in the garage next to my garage (#25). Wish I had come over and met you. I was in the silver 991.2 GT3RS #80.

Hey all, is Yachting Blue Metallic the same as Marine Blue Metallic from the 930?

Eric - Plug Guy

No. They may appear similar, but formulations are not the same:


YACHTING BLUE

MARINE BLUE

Wow that’s super helpful thank you! I’m trying to replicate a throwback 930 Turbo build on a 992 Turbo so choosing a PTS color. Although might stick with GT Silver

Interesting!! my choice if YB was inspired by that color and Prussian and Venetian blues of the 80s

I just saw a YB 992 GT3T with Cohiba interior. Beautiful color in person, great choice. I also heard on Spike's Car that Jerry ordered his classic in YB.

My GT3T in Vancouver. Just picked up a couple weeks ago. Nothing CXX. PTS YB and Cohiba interior. Everything blacked or greyed out outside. Built as a true touring car - no carbon, 18 ways, leather everything (no Race Tex) etc. Pairs well with my .2 3RS.

Took delivery Friday! Here are some indoor shots, direct/indirect sun to come.

Having NOT seen the color in person on ordering, it's fascinating to process it live. Thoughts for those considering YB:

• It's much more highly metallic than I believed, which I like a ton!
• It appears darker in the bugs you see and configurator; it's lighter given the metallic swing and surface area
• It is an awesome combo of silver and medium blue, but can appear very silvery in sunlight (this I gleaned from photos prior)
• It moves around a ton, even with car stationary - lighting changes it from deep medium blue to light blue to silver all at once
• It has a tinge of purple to it in sunlight that cameras didn't pick up in my googling (see Eric's color formulas above)

All in all, I love it on a Touring. It's captivating. Pairs well with the dark silver rims and black trim. All IMHO (confirmation bias perhaps)

Those Insta photos above are too saturated IMO - making the color appear darker

Outdoor sunlight shots - big dark-ish to silver swing. I found a lot of videos/photos online where the car looked medium-dark blue in shadows. That deep grey blue is awesome, much of the time YB will be significantly lighter.

Anyway - amazing color to me, having narrowed the field to: stealthier more mature metallics, lighter greys blues or reds. I went for a "luxe sport" build for what I hope a long term keeper, vs my usual more sports build with satin black wheels and darker colors. I think it's a special look, but of course color is personal and there are so many great hues on this car



This angle and light to me shows the car's color best

Dark to light swing (L>R)



Heading for .ppf!

Thanks for sharing, the color is perfect! It always looks slightly different in every video/picture but really pops in the sun.

Are there any pictures of a YB GT4 or would that look weird?

Here is a completely different perspective of YB. My Macan GTS. Can show off much lighter in the sun.
