GTS build dates
that looks fantastic, but I still think its all about the lighting with Papaya.

Yeah, it sucks.
Taken a while to get the insurance sorted, and have finally felt able to go to the local OPC to put a deposit on a new dream build Gen 3 GTS in Papaya (www.porsche-code.com/PNZSZ444) - only to be told the lead time is now 2023!
Have called around other dealers in the region and been told the same, so if anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Otherwise I either keep my powder dry for the next 15 - 18 months, or look for an alternative, neither of which has much appeal.
I'm trying to convince myself that if / when it finally comes it will be worth the wait...

Saw a Panamera in Papaya yesterday and it doesn't look as 'Golden' as that picture. It looked like a nice colour but not for me.OmniCognateSnr wrote: ↑Tue Sep 28, 2021 12:12 pmthat looks fantastic, but I still think its all about the lighting with Papaya.

Some of the Porsche colours vary so much in the light. Even in daylight the carmine red went from red to virtually maroon when the clouds came over!

I personally think the Papaya looks better in the base/S for Gen 3 than the GTS with the additional colour on the front grill. I also think 'controversially' that the black side blades go really well with Papaya. Sadly I wasnt brave enough/didnt convince the other half to pick orange over grey for a car.
Yep, I’ve gone Volcano too. In my case my son has a VERY orange car so having both on the drive will make it look like we work for EasyJet.BanZ wrote: ↑Tue Sep 28, 2021 12:35 pm I personally think the Papaya looks better in the base/S for Gen 3 than the GTS with the additional colour on the front grill.

I originally specced Papaya but bottled out when I saw some videos of Papaya on Panamera which looked a bit brown in certain lights.BanZ wrote: ↑Tue Sep 28, 2021 12:35 pm I personally think the Papaya looks better in the base/S for Gen 3 than the GTS with the additional colour on the front grill.
