It seems Porsche has found a way to make all their higher end 911 variants $15K more expensive without raising the price. If you believe the internet, all GTS and above cars owners specify and pay for PTS paint.

I don't understand what this means. GTS and above carry PTS?

" Porsche noted that it will soon be able to churn out about 20 paint-to-sample 911 models per day, up from five before the expansion. And, it added that selecting a paint-to-sample color does not increase the amount of time needed to build a car."

4x growth in PTS throughput should drastically reduce PTS order times.... so thats good news.

PTS does seem a lot more common. In my dealership (other than my car) I know of at least one other TTS and a Touring that are going PTS. On some of the higher end models, budget becomes less of a concern - ie there is no anxiety about spending $12k on paint that could otherwise go toward switching to a higher tier model.

Loads of Turbos and GTS' will end up the PTS route now. A good portion of GT3's were already PTS in previous generations.

‘Thats super helpful, wish I saw that when I specced mine.

No kidding.

It seems very well done. At least based on Oak Green Metallic, the render looks pretty close to the real color.
