Unhappy Availability of Ice Blue Metallic Paint delayed.

Just heard that the availability of exterior colour Ice Blue Metallic has been delayed. It will not be available for 997 and 987 until November production at the earliest due to a supplier problem.

I picked Ice Blue Metallic Paint for my Turbo S. So either I wait or back to the drawing board for another colour.

Got a second choice colour? That's a looooooooong wait - Jan/Feb delivery for blue.

How long is the additional wait? If it's excessive then choose a different paint.

Pick another color for sure, not worth the wait, no way. Maybe find out how long paint to sample would be and try and get a discount based on the delay? Ferrari Azzuro California would look close and great!

Yeah, they needed some specs from Iceland, and that's off limits for a while...

Ha! My dealer called me last week and told me that ice blue metallic had become available and we switched my TTS order to ibm just last week! I saw the system validate and accept the new color code "XZ!"

I've changed this order so many times I'm getting dizzy!
