I doubt it. I think it just means that you can, like in the older configurator version, see what the car you cannot have would look like.

Not available still... They just are trying to get a few config features up and running... apparently the deviated stitching should start showing in the next couple weeks (at least that is once again what they are telling the dealers)

If things start becoming available the day my car freezes (today)... Well there isn't anything I can do about it, but that would really suck hahah

Im just going to say it... Porsche has described these colors completely backwards and I think they have the colors mixed up... Otherwise the configurator is lying to my eyes

Rubystar PTS - Darker and More Purple



RUBYSTAR NEO - Lighter and more Red

It's a total translation error. Read it more like: "It's good for the money"... Japanese is never easy to directly translate... let alone all the nuances.

I have the VIN for almost a month now, but unfortunately in Germany (entire Europe?) we don't get as many details in terms of build dates and the like.

If they open up PTS, I will be very tempted to get Viola Purple Metallic. And if I get cold feet, then Gemini Blue Metallic. For now, I'll just deal with PTSD(elete).

Lock date moved up 2 days-that's fine, I submitted my last tweak 3 days ago. DONE. Everything else stayed the same

This is PERFECT (but I would keep the decal)

Im an ultraviolet fan myself, but both of those would look amazing....

If I could pick any color under the sun, I honestly couldn't tell you right now if it would be "Porsche Racing Green" "Ultraviolet" or Smyrna Green".... which is why im actually kind of glad to have had the choice made for me.

Love those colors as well. I tend to gravitate toward metallic colors. Just something about the way they make the lines and curves pop.

Ultraviolet is such an incredibly perfect 992T color! This car was made for the “skittles” color palette

So excited for my race-tex wheel, shifter and arm rest... I know its a cheaper material, I know people dont think it holds up well... But I personally cant wait to get it on track and enjoy the grippy feeling (and I don't mind the extra work to maintain it)... it looks Killer!

What kind of time gap do people see between their freeze date and delivery date? Mine is 65 days, though that is with including PECATL delivery. I'm wondering if the gap is tighter without PECATL delivery.
