Maybe, hard to tell….. looks like a lot of streets in Ca or Fla. But if so, there are much better (more picturesque) settings than that one. Just sayin’

This is the spot.

And yes, that area has plenty of more picturesque photo locations, but this is just a "spotter" photograph from someone.

Here's one I took a few years back on a visit to the area. This is a better location:

Now, that’s the kind of picture I’m talking about. Beautiful. Having been there myself, I know there were many far better locations to get that pic from. But in some ways, if the background is more picturesque than the car itself, it detracts from the subject of the picture, ie, the car.

Here is a picture of my Aventurine Green 992S that I took about a month ago after I returned from a flight to the beach. The car stands out in a rather bland background of hangar, and tarmac…although wish it had been sunnier that day, as it might have brought out some of the unique hues of the AG. .

Neither the hanger or the tarmac or the lighting are an issue. The fencing however makes it look like your 992 will be out on parole in 3-5 years.

Well, the barbed wire fencing was symbolic that at the time of the picture, my 992S was still in break-in mode, so in fact, it hadn’t been released and under partial redline lock down…so to speak. 😎. But good catch.

Looks great. Congratulations to you. The 19 and 20" Wheel option is a great choice for those terrible Houston roads. The regular exhaust aligns very nicely with the rear of the car

It really depends a lot on the lighting. I would say more often than not, it looks...grey ;(

Yes. But in those moments where the lighting is just right, the green and blue (yes blue) hues come out to make AG a special color. IMO.
