Really hoping that Oak Green Neo makes an appearance on the new palette. Would really love to see a deep dark green make a return to the 911 line in perpetuity (like guards red) as there is so much history with it. Porsche will still be able to sell every single PTS slot they have regardless. Madeira Gold is almost like a Nordic Gold neo and that'd be cool to see offered, though can't imagine the take rate would be very high.
I would love to see Racing Yellow replaced with Speed or Signal but I doubt that will happen.
I highly suspect that Lugano Blue will replace Shark Blue, especially since Shark Blue is going NLA in March 2024.
Impossible to tell anything from an online pic, but it seems like a boring blue compared to Shark. I've been wanting a Shark blue car for awhile now so I'm hoping it's not going away.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it has been internally confirmed that Shark Blue is NLA come mid March 2024. Multiple individuals that initially spec’ed SB for their 992 to be built in April 2024 were denied and were informed to select a different color by PCNA. Racing Yellow is also NLA come mid March. Ruby Star Neo to follow in April. The plus side, three new colors are coming… 😁

That is sad news. Hopefully they replace it with some equally enticing color.

I'm hoping the new colors show up as available for my 992.1 order with an April build date. I don't know how Porsche typically handles new colors, if they are only on the new model or fall with a model year cutover. Just seems like a bad move to take away three colors and not make available the new colors.

Yea you would think it would be a simultaneous takeaway and add new as opposed to take away and in 6 months will give you some new colors.

Those three were part of their Heritage Collection or (Celebrating 75 year of Porsche collection) (in either their original hue or what they call their Neo heu). I'm curious if they will introduce new bright colors back.
If anyone wants to purchase gallon jugs of the paint that is a match to the non Neo version, I guess you should order it soon.
No one wants a boring Porsche. Well, maybe some people do...
Could always go Guards red? Although I did have my heart set on the blue
Once again, I agree…
Edit: Keep in mind that’s Shark Blue was the communication color, aka the launch color for the 992 GT3. So just over a three year run when it goes NLA in March.

If it is any indication, the newly released Panamera has a Green Oak Metallic Neo option, like they did with Ruby Star before.
We will likely see this on the 992.2. Decent color but I wish it were not a carry-over from the Taycan. I had the same feeling about Ice Grey Metallic. I'd rather we had some colors that are unique to the 911.

@The911Don I am right there with you. Some new colors exclusive to the 911 is my preference.
