Default New PTS Targa - Arrived!!!

My new targa just came in on Saturday night, was at the dealer for a few days and then getting a full PPF for a few days after that. So it finally got delivered on Saturday evening. (I use Porsche Beachwood in Cleveland, due to the lack of allocations from my 2 dealers here in Cincy...)

After having several targas over the years, as well as a 2020 992 4S coupe and the 2022 992 Targa 4S, about 6 months ago I got an allocation which allowed for PTS. So I jumped on it! Even though both the PTS and Heritage Interior (at the time) were both supposedly not available, I was able to secure both. This is my first porsche in all the years I have done Paint To Sample. So it was a difficult choice - but ended up going Dark Olive Metallic, with the Cognac Heritage Interior. What a special color, it is very dark (almost Charcoal/Black) in non-direct light, and a very dark metallic green in very bright light. I snapped a few pictures of it to show the variance this color has.

I know I say this to myself every time I get a new 911, but this one actually might be a keeper, it is quite special. Also, having the sport tex seats and full leather in my 2022 targa, this heritage interior is just next level...

Well anyway, enjoy the pics. It is a tough color to accurately capture, and since only a few pics exist out in the wild on this, figured I would snap a few - at different lighting - to hopefully capture Dark Olive Metallic the best I can.

Sport tex is completely under rated. I don't think I would ever go back to full leather. Cooler in summer.

Welcome to Team Dark Olive Metallic! I love the color and agree that it's almost impossible to capture accurately. Seeing is believing. I'm incredibly jealous of your interior.

Looks awesome. Does heritage interior package come with the grille badge, or did you add that?

Love it. Wow at first glance you would think its black, in person I'm sure it's much more obvious.

The Heritage interior really compliments the exterior color, and the exterior color really compliments the Heritage interior. That is what makes it so classic.

Drive it in good health!

The Grill badge is my addition.. The 911 heritage badge on the front dash area and door sills are included with the heritage interior (as well as the green colored dials and sports chrono clock face).
