RC:
Colors never seem to have been a strength of Porsche, I agree. On a 200+k EUR car, I have basically 14 colors to choose from, which in my opinion is not enough. The paint to sample option is great but waiting at least 6 months for it? Nope. Porsche has so many already "approved" colors, there has to be a way to get them fast and without a big fuss and/or a very high premium. I am not 100% happy with my 991 Turbo S color choice (agate grey) but everything else I liked would have delayed my car production by at least six months. This is ridiculous.
Totally agree... And now they even start lying to customers....
I asked them roughly a month ago if some sort of white metallic was available for PTS, because the rhodium that I choose first was becoming way too populair. They said it wasn't available and had first to be checked for feasibility (which takes another couple of months extra), so in the end I went for a middle grey shade of metallic (stone grey). Couple of weeks later there's a Turbo S in white metallic on the IAA which looked absolutely awesome!!.
i've let it rest for a couple of days but i'm starting to get pissed off now! Too bad my order is locked... Otherwise they could stick their 911 in a place where no light ever shines.
Big deception for someone that is addicted to the brand....
