If it's not doctored up/photoshopped.. that has to be the prettier red I've seen

Beautiful red

Marcus S.

It was Black, Miami Blue and Racing Yellow. Porsche had to give an OK on every order.

Just in time

Certainly not Carmine red. Carmine is a brighter red. Ruby red? Eduardo probably knows. Where is he?

My vote is for arena red. It was a standard color for a while on the 997.1 and not very well received at the time.

Euro number plates are same font/colour front back



UK plates are different to Euro Plates , also different colour front to back

I'll let my Canadian 'compatriot' Daniel tackle the color of the
991 gt3 RS from his vantage point in the 'Great White North'.
He already touched on the subject in post #13.



Let this chameleon prove once & for all how unreliable it's
to depend on photos from the web to guess at its PTS color!

Instead, I am concentrating on the 918. I am wondering if the
Spyder pictured on this thread is the 'Burgundy Red' (paint # 6808
& Porsche color code 017) that we heard was approved for someone
that requested it on that special model? I got today an email from
a former PCA president that asked me about that 918 he had seen
on this Rennlist thread. And it started me thinking about it!





According to this report (which doesn't specify the exact color), it
was the last 918 Spyder built:

We know from a report from Rennlister Larry F that there were
several 'reds' approved for PTS on the 918. They included:

Rosso Efesto (a Lambo Metallic Red)
Rosso Corsa (Ferrari Red)
Pagani Red (Wonder whose 'red' this is, Horacio?)
Arena Red Metallic

and

'Burgundy 6808'. Which was known as Porsche
color code 017 at one time.

Perhaps some reader of Rennlist knows exactly the color of this
dark red 918 Spyder and can put the speculation to rest.

PTSRS

This is the only PTS RS whose color I still have not been able to determine. I do know the dealer of origin is Porsche Centrum Leusden in the Netherlands. Only way of confirming is via the dealer. This car has been seen throughout Europe, including Geneva, Monaco and the Netherlands. The GT3 RS decal at the back has also been noted by a British photographer to be strikingly mispositioned, suggesting it had been removed and reapplied at some point.

Ferrarisimo

Will,

I reached out to a sales associate at the dealership, and he said the color is GTS Red (LM3E). Not sure if you or Eduardo have heard of it before.

Looks like it.. new favorite PTS color. Have any other Porsche's been painted in LM3E?

Z356

We have heard of the color before. At the present time
PAG's color code system has only three possible letters
& numbers to categorize each of the hues. In this case
'GTS Red' is M3E.





Thank you for contacting the selling dealer on this matter.
