North America Stats: 3 coupes - 4 cabs - 2011 only

I don't have 100% confidence in these numbers but they are probably close.

Porsche doesn’t release production numbers broken down by color, so unfortunately anything you’ll hear on the forums is a guess.

Was Ice Blue Metallic offered as a special color in 2011 or 2012, or was it paint to sample? It looks very nice.

Hi, mine is a 2011 PTS, I've been told it is Ice Blue Met, Horizon Blue Met and a couple of other colors, I don't know for sure what color it is and haven't found a way to definitively identify it. And, it does have a two tone interior.

Look on the gas cap for color and then go to rennbow.net

This is (supposedly) the production numbers and break outs for North America 997.2 Turbos. I'm not 100% sure it's accurate but it may be close. Source unknown.

I am not an expert in any way but it appears it was an option in 2011 and because of low demand became a PTS in 2012. If that is the case then it would fall under PTS metallic in 2012. Those are not broken out any further in the table I have. Are you certain it's a 2012? Can you share the VIN?

My original doubt with this source is my sense in having seen more non-metallic PTS cars than are listed in the sheet (3). However, I wasn't specifying non-turbo models out of that loosely held running tab in my head. So it could be right. (remember - the table is only for .2 turbos)

The color is not that rare in Porschedom.

Thank you for the gas cap info, I didn't know the color code was there. According to the code 3F3 it is Azurro California (a Ferrari color) from what I can find. So, I'm not Ice Blue.

Very rare color - congrats. Maybe a 1 of 1 for Turbo - definitely a PTS for your year.

Are Turbo S's included in these numbers, or is there a separate list? I have a '12' TTS coupe in GT Silver. Curious how many...

I'm pretty sure I saw one of those ice blue coupes For sale in Greenwich CT at the Porsche dealer a few months ago. It was listed Sunday for $115k (dealer closed), I called Monday at 9 am sharp asking for a cellphone picture as the website had none, and it was sold 30 minutes later when I called back to ask why I hadn't received a picture yet.
