I think the Siem Cicero was supposed to stop in Baltimore, then continue to Houston. I've seen it meandering around the Chesapeake Bay for the past 24-36 hours, must be port congestion.
I am still showing it arriving in Houston late January.

If i get anything different on TYD, i'll let you know.

cheers!

I agree. I am a porsche fanboy with a Targa4s on irder.
I love greens but good grief....why is the latest green so blah. Way too much gray in it.
I am so disapointed with Porsche colors available for $1,000 or less.

I have a 981 in white and love it. MY targa will be white metallic with beaudeau and dark grey interior.

Actually, I think all manufacturers have boring selections unless one spends big $$.

Try getting any sedsn with any decent color.

I know it seems odd that I picked white but with the selection so poor.....White is my choice.

My Targa GTS is on the way to Emden a week early but I can’t get the production picture for some reason which is a bit unfortunate. Was yours just in the normal TYD “Discover current phase” section?

Congrats!! Yes, and was just posted. Seems updates from Porsche are a little behind so hang in there.

I may do that. My Targa is white and this would look nice with the black lower mirror and the black and silver turbo wheels.

should look great!!! In my case I wanted the matte black skirts to tie into front and rear spoiler/diffuser and matte black Targa bar.

Aventurine is a dynamic color and depends a lot on the light. In direct sunlight it can get pretty green. In low light more of a greenish gray. Sometimes it will even look darker green. IMO with a truffle interior its the best fit.

Truffle is definitely a beauty with Aventurine. I’ve seen the color in the flesh in sunlight and just wasn’t for me but I can see the appeal.

Agree here....I was a bit harsh on my other comment. A subtle color. Truffle is perfect match for it.
