send your letters to PCNA if you have a deposit for an allocation, and want Paint-To-Sample as an option, or classic colors like Orange, Green, Silver, Black.

This allows PCNA to quantify loses by not offering the paint-to-sample to North America.
Despite the car being a great car, it won't have the crazy stampede of sales as the previous RS. This is a new economy.
Less than a year ago, a Scuderia was close to $500k, R8 and RS over sticker. This is a new market, and PCNA knows that the 2010 GT3 RS won't sell as hot cakes, so they cannot enforce restrictions on options that will hurt their sales even more.
Based on the phenomenal specs of the 2010 GT3, and the poor sales (they are sitting eveywhere), I anticipate similar consequences for the 2010 GT3 RS.
I want Riviera Blue with white stripes and white wheels, and another set of black wheels and black stripes, so I can change it at will. No A/C, no radio, PCCB, halogen, carbon euro seats, full Clubsport cage.

"Initial three month production run..." Now that's an interesting quote. I wonder if that's tied to the 250 cars for NA comments we've been hearing? If so, leaves the door open for increasing the total production run. It would make sense as a means to build demand and hype for the car, while allowing for follow-on numbers to increase.
Hard to imagine Porsche not trying to sell more RS's if demand exists especially given their current economic state. As I recall, they increased the numbers on the Carrera GT from original estimates.

I'm going to respray an older car.
I want the paint codes for the car to the right. Not the black.
Thanks!

I've been contemplating paint to sample, since I don't want to go white, can't stand the undercoat grey and that particular blue is appealing, but not for me in this paricular car. PTS definitely wouldn't be black or any silver (though I'm partial to Polar Silver Metallic ... that's my '96 993 and I don't need a garage with two 911's in the same color.)
Does anyone have any information on historically significant reds for Porsche? Perhaps a dark red or burgundy in an early race car?
Perhaps somebody has been to the museum and seen something (colo(u)r) distinctive?

I have not seen a final order guide, but the last pdf posted here said $5500 PTS for the GT3. Who knows?
