Probably volcano grey. It’s a good color, less brown in it than agate.

Dang another color gone what the heck. I hope they still have a similar amount of colors for the .2 as they did before dropping all these colors. It wouldn't be so bad if you could get PTS as long as you were willing to pay the additional cost.

I have a June lock and October delivery for a TT. I REALLY hope that they release some new colors soon. At this point, we have lost RSN, Av Green, Shark, Yellow, and Agate. Right now, that sucks. If Porsche releases new colors and allows the remaining .1 builds to also access it...then that will be great.
Thoughts on which way this likely goes? No new colors until .2s and that will be 2025? New colors, but only for .2s (.1s have to suffer with next to zero choices)? Or new colors for all and it is coming this Summer?

I doubt any new colors will launch until the 992.2 SOP

Can't wait for black, white and red being the only non PTS colors.

I always wished my agate grey was a bit darker-maybe the next form of grey will be a bit darker.

It should be called "Road Grime Grey". Easiest color I've ever owned!

Ice Gray Metallic is also gone, along with Carrera White (though that's been gone for a while).

Wait, what? IGM is gone? Starting when? This is getting ridiculous. How confident are you about that one? I’ve spent the last week building an IGM Turbo as one of my 3 finalists.

I have an Agate Grey scheduled to start build on 9 July and finish on 17 July, so I guess I’ll make it!
