i remember once a guy was speccing a '11 turbo
and asked for a pearl white paint

the sales person said that he needs to bring a sample of the paint and than they send the reuqest to porsche in Germany, they reivew the request, if they decide to do it, the car will take an extra 6 months to complete

i'm tempted in the idea of getting a Guards red Cayenne

sorry for the off topic

 

They won't paint a Cayenne Guard's. I've asked. Unless they've changed in the last few months, you get Cayenne's in stock colors. You can now get a Pana in PTS, but I asked for a Guard's, and they wouldn't do it. They have no way to paint the satellite antennae in red to match and don't know how to yet fix that. LOL.

PTS is $8,210 US dollars. Deviated color deviated stitching is no charge. Yes, I said that right.

 

well then why in one of their ads, there's a guards red Pana? I'll post up a pic later, unless my eyes deceive me

 

Maybe they fixed. It was a while ago I asked. And it was specific to a Turbo that they wouldn't paint. Not a base or S model. Or something. Even told em to leave the satellite black and we would paint. They didn't compute.

 

that sucks !

the colors offered are few

since a customer is willing to pay they should do it !!
and they should just explain to customer, that a special order car, there are some pieces that are not sutiable for painting

and should leave it to the customer if he's going to accept it or not. i dont mind having some black bit in a guards red cayenne or pana

i was thinking guards red, black interior+ deviated stcitching
sport design and leave the spoiler black for a bit of contrast

with the 21' wheels in black

OH Well!!! its Porsche

 

Does anyone know if the wheels are painted in matt or metallic black?
was offered both to choose from!

 

I would say gloss/ simi gloss. OEM would not be flat black, that is for sure.

Not sure why the dealer used the matt/metallic terminology. got 24 hours to decide...
so metallic i guess?

 

wheels are solid gloss black ,as gt2rs spec, im maybe going to change the rs centre cap to red script ,tie in with the calipers,standard script colour gt silver,writeing around the centre nut stays white, dealer has the caps see what looks the best,car should land all being well end of this week at the dealership.

 

Thanks for your reply. Can't wait to see this car in other colors
