Default Panamera in camouflage in San Francisco

I first saw this car Monday or Tuesday crossing the Golden Gate Bridge heading south. The head and taillights along with front and rear bumpers were camouflaged. Badge on the hood wasn't covered at all. Saw it again today and snapped some pics of the back.

Mid-cycle refresh?

Since its from Georgia, maybe a PCNA owned car? HT designates a non passenger vehicle classified as distributor. Can anyone run the plate? Pretty interesting, thanks for posting the pics. Make sure you post any more info you get on the car.

Nice find! What's up with those indents on the back I wonder? This car looks exactly like the one shot in Germany...

Just took some pics of the 991 GT3 running around just now. I'll post on 991 or GT3 forum.

Those HT tags are temporary tags that dealers put on cars for test drives, taking one home for the weekend, etc. Strange that it be all the way out in San Francisco.

Let me throw some fuel into the fire... unless they are PERFORMANCE testing (i.e. there is some performance update coming with the facelift). One can dream at least.... So maybe they're testing over in CA in different climates?

Those are the distributor plates PCNA uses if they register the vehicle in GA where their headquarters is.
