Wow, that will be special. And agree, it's amazing they make it work at all, even with delays.

I've come to the conclusion that TYD is really not of much use!!

That looks cool! Do the pics suddenly appear in TYD or are they emailed to you?

They appear automatically in TYD and you get an email from Porsche alerting you that the pics are there.

My thoughts as well. Looks a bit lighter in some photos.
Love seeing the classic colors on these S/Ts (and GT3T, Dakar)

@Butzi @GrantG Thanks. Yes, Bahama Yellow. I'm actually not a huge fan of yellow cars, haha, but have a sentimental reason. Was surprised when they picked it for the launch color at RR7 where it debuted. So, had to do it for the S/T!!

Has the poll of what color is your S/T been updated after then June / July culling of the herd and all the guys waiting for PTS getting that form letter and print from Porsche saying "Sorry, no PTS for you" ? It's great seeing so many special colors....with what looks like 40% of the US cars being Shore Blue and Heritage. Are we confirmed with 526 USA cars produced?

I believe it is in the mid 400's for US cars, and in the 80's for PTS, US cars

The 526 cars was to include Canada. US is supposed to be around 470 or so.

Yes decals applied later so will have to wait until it is delivered to see the full impact of the heritage pack. Irish Green.

haven’t finished watching yet, but Harry (yes, we’re on a first name basis) is usually rather objective and thorough.
