Very good to meet you all and to see Seawise again. A few pics I took below including the lovely Saphire Blue car belonging to Seawise which I followed round the M25 for a while. Looked stunning I thought.

I saw a dark green Touring arriving as I left or were my eyes deceiving me? Was it a wrap?

A quieter venue next time for sure. These cars are beyond special.

There's a Touring I've seen a few times driving out of Henley recently towards Shiplake - anybody here?

Hi Relic, we had a chat as you were leaving. I was in the green Touring. The previous owner coloured changed the car at Topaz using their liquid skin, basically a respray that can be removed without damage to the original paint, was Agate, now Oak Green Metallic.

PS I’m just finishing spec on 992 Touring and I’m going Comfort Seats and PDK! Going for more very day use this time around. And getting old.
I’m also going through that process and having the same thoughts, just wish there was a folding bucket option, also been offered PTS so another choice to make rolleyes

Good luck. I may also have PTS. Irony is that my PTS will be a shade of grey, nothing exciting! I’m definite on comforts but wobbling on PDK.

Stupidly I had expected a Touring parking section but as you say , it was chaos! I did manage to grab a space outside the showroom at 11:00 only up bump into 2010SPY in his stunning Pista, good to meet 2mpete & Noo2PDK.
Empty roads and less people next time!
Nice to see you! Sorry to bring a Pista to a Touring meet! Normal service will be resumed next year!

Always thought PDK and Comfort seats was the right spec for the Touring. The whole idea of a Touring to me is that it makes the best daily driver Porsche make so spec it like one ! I’d probably have ordered by 991.2 as a Touring if PDK had been available.

Hi GTSJOE, very good it looked too! Topaz did a great job. Was your car the Agate one that originally had red air vents and was sold through Leeds?

I really like the folding buckets in my car. Really disappointed they are not offering these on the 992 Touring. Much better for long journeys and you can put stuff in the back, make perfect sense. Might have to sofas next time.

Hi Relic, the car was originally delivered by Porsche West London, then resold through DK Engineering to the previous owner.

This got listed a couple days ago, seems like the market is about 200k right now? https://www.vvsuk.co.uk/vehicle-details/Porsche-91...

A couple weeks ago I found out there was a 3rd Graphite Blue Metallic, and now this GT Silver is new to my list too. I'm up to 49 now, has anyone got higher?

I have the Aetna Blue someone in this thread posted, and Chris Harris' Racing Yellow car on my list but excluded from the count, as I believe they aren't UK supplied.

Saw this in Central London last week. Brewster Green I think. Looked gorgeous in the sunshine.

Fudge me that looks quality, looks like silver rims as well?

I’m sure there’s a Speedster in Brewster with Cocoa interior that look incredible, approaching peak Porsche!

The rear bumper looks a different colour to the rest of the car, and not a shadow confused

About six months pre Brexit there was. Stunning Deep Sea Blue Touring with silver wheels and window trim available in Europe for Eur 180k…thought long and hard about it but didn’t (I own a regular 991.2 GT3). Definitely regret that I didn’t pull the trigger….
