Blech. To each their own. I am not a fan of the Taycan in Frozen Blue. Just saw one again on Thursday.

Irish Green would be nice, but I would have a hard time shelling out PTS money on a non-GT car. But that's just me.

Agree. Mamba green does look good.

Personally, I don't think any of those colors work on a Taycan.

And generally, I'm a +1 to PTS being better suited to GT cars.

Although, I must say -- the Taycan would look incredible in 6601 Slate or Brewster Green!

Slate would really translate well to the Taycan. The 991 Turbo has similar curvature:



B
BRG would look equally sharp:

I think Brewster, Irish, or BR Green is the way to go. Even though only a wrap, looks killer.

Well I pulled the trigger on a PTS Turbo S In July and the car is now built and loaded onto a ship in route to the USA. Maybe the first PTS Taycan in USA? I have seen non but know the first month PTS was available for a 2022 was November of 2021 as I had to get approval from PCNA to move the dealers October Allocation to November. There were some delays in production and then a month sitting in European port waiting on transport but I should have it in 6 week or so.....

Amethyst... Both cool and classy; something few colors can pull off. But, lol, I'm among the "GT car might make the entry fee plausible" types.
