@RatherJaded Woah there. So I read your previous post. Can you clarify? You were at v215 then PTS got pulled? Can you share details?

I am not the OP, but fyi V215 is still modifiable. V250 = SOL unless a dealer can get PCNA to assist with a minor change.

I was referring to your first post. Did they say you had PTS before v215? After? What happened?

I did not state either. I was simply stating the fact that V215 is not a hard freeze. V215 is still modifiable. V250 = build specs are frozen, “hard freeze.”

Quick update on progress of the 992.2 Carrera (base) PTS allocation.
Spoke to my SA and have an updated estimated delivery date, has been pulled in a month, now 2/14.
Stepping away for a bit. Will update here if anything goes off track.
Thanks to everyone for their help.

Default Reached V250
Checking back in as I realize there are those with PTS orders (or hopes and dreams) following. Reached V250, step 3 in TYD. Delivery estimate unchanged, 2/14.

In my opinion Zandvoort Blue and Gulf Blue are not even remotely similar.


Gulf Blue 992.2

Gulf Blue is just Shade Green's less envious, cooler brother.
