Yes, Nordic Gold, I think it was a standard option on 997 and PTS option on GT3.

I am aware of 3 GT3’s in this colour, mine was originally a Bahrain car but been in Dubai about 4 years. There is one in Brazil with steel brakes like mine, then the US one as posted above with ceramic brakes.

Nordic Gold was on the standard color palette for a .2 GT3. Was a $3,140 USD option. It was offered starting in the 2009 model year for most Porsche’s and was available till 2010 I believe. The .2 GT3 and .1 GT2 were the only GT cars to offer it without PTS. Though the only North American Nordic Gold GT2 met its demise. Any Porsche before or after 2009-2010 that is Nordic Gold is PTS.

I stand corrected, thanks for that, interesting. We have two 997.1 Turbos in the 9ers group here in Dubai.
