Default MY18 Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid almost delivered

She just arrived at the dealership, can't wait to pickup in a few days and take better photos! GT Silver Metallic over Agate Grey with ample swaths of leather.

My MY14 Panamera Turbo S is forsale with low miles!

Why did you decide on the SY PCCBs? Acid Green PCCBs are exclusive to this car.

Beautiful, love GT Silver. Did you consider the Turbo S E in the Turismo?? I also want to sell my 2012 Panamera Turbo (27000) miles, but can't decide between the regular or the Turismo on the TTS E.
If you don't mind me asking, what did you approx. pay.

Good q, I don't recall! I ordered the car 3/17 and seem to recall that PCCBs were SY and Acid Green would have led to steel brakes.

I could definitely be incorrectly remembering.

I am a HUGE wagon fan and really wanted the ST. At the time I ordered the car, 3/17 with delivery 10/17, the ST would have seriously delayed the order. Considering it arrived 6/18, maybe it would have been worth waiting. However after seeing a few STs on the road in light colors, to me, the rear overhang looks awful. YMMV.

Funny you say that, as every Turismo I've seen, even at dealerships has been a dark color, so will have to pay attention to the lighter colors. I really like the GT Silver, both my 911 TTS & Panamera are GT. Ordered the wife a Macan Turbo last Aug., and GT Silver not available, so pulled the trigger on PTS, and Porsche said weren't doing PTS until some time in 2018. Went with Agate, and actually like it.

Beautiful car! Just ordered one. What wood did you choose? Or is that the leather interior?

Only TTS E-Hybrid has PCCBs in Acid Green, other than the 918 of course. As long as you're happy w/ SY, it's all good.

True. Only a couple of those around.

Andial--do you happen to know the exact number of them. I was told by my dealership there are only 42 in Nor4th America?? Mine is #71, but don't know how numbers were distributed.

Is it possible to buy new calipers, or easier to repaint? Hmm.

Not sure but maybe you can find on ********** Fewer than 918 because 997 production ended before all 918s sold, and not all wanted it. 918 owners could match TTS # to 918 # so not representative of how many made.

Don't know, but SY PCCBs on a TTS will be rare.
