I like it. You're at GT3 pricing but with cooled seats. That's the interesting thing about this gen. I like the matching tach too!! The price bump puts them in GT3 territory real fast. Since your build is red, what do you think of Carmine Red? It's metallic from what I understand. From the pictures, it is quite nice.

Any new pics of python green?
just checking one more time before jumping, has anyone heard anything about the bugs (speakers, PCM. Wind, battery. Engine, etc)? I am sort of out of time for an current year allocation.

I require a back seat, I take the kids to school/activities here and there. My first choice in colour is Miami Blue (but can't order it anymore), I'm waiting to see what Shark blue looks like, I find carmine a tad too dark on cloudy days. If PTS was the same cost as the previous gen I'd get Mexico blue.
With my heavy build and the delays in production I'm leaning to wait for the 992 GTS.

I didn't know that about Miami blue. Is Shark blue lighter or darker? I assume lighter. I have a sapphire blue 991, and I love it. I was leaning Python green because Gentian blue looks amazing in pictures but is dark in real life. So, I understand what you're saying. If Python Green looks as good as I think it does in real life, I think it will be a good choice. The build locks tomorrow. So, I'm going to have to decide whether to go for it now or put things on hold until more options and models come (assuming minimal issues).

Seeing that pick from Warren99 it looks AMAZING! If you like green I don't think you can go wrong. The Carrera S wheels look great with the decal. Spyder wheels are good too but will be a bitch to clean. I have similar ones on my Audi and it takes time. If you do go that route get them nano coated will make cleaning easier.

I love that blue. It is very similar to my Sapphire Blue although a little darker. That is about as dark as I'd want to go. I also don't want a super light or washed out blue either. I've never explored green until now. This would be my first green car since blue is not available in a hue I want. My friend has Need for Speed green on a 2019 Mustang GT, and I think Python green is similar. I think Jet Black metallic Carrera S rims are the way to go after giving it more thought. We will see what happens. Better be careful, this thread is about green...

Default PYTHON GREEN video


This GTS looks really good in certain light. Thought I'd share. Makes me feel a little more confident about potentially ordering this color.

Wow. That looks dramatically different than the pics above. Almost a mint green..almost.

I missed the freeze date, because I got cold feet after reading about some bugs. Gonna keep driving the 991 a little longer. I still like the python green. So, we will see what happens. Thanks for answering my questions. I'll post more pics if I see them or when I put in an order.

This is one of those colors that will look drastically different in different light. Those Turbo pics are under cloudy skies.

Love it, considering this color for my next Turbo - If I did I would get a personalized license plate - FASTFROG

Carmine Red is not metallic. All of the metallic colors say they are metallic, as in "GT Silver Metallic".

Can't wait to see Python Green in person. Would imagine it will be soon.

It looks like it has a bit of blue base in it ?
