My mate's off to Germany next week to spec his PTS Turbo S (he's buying through JCT600) so it's definitely available. He was originally going for Rubystar Red but is looking at Maritime Blue and anything else they suggest. If Rubystar or Maritime, he's having the seat panels and door cards in corresponding colours of leather a la 964RS.
If he’s hoping rubystar looks anything like the 964 rubystone he’s going to be very disappointed What's different ? More pinky, less pinky, more reddy, less depth? Thanks.

Looks too chintzy that. I am sure the owner would be delighted but it’s very desperate housewives and all candelabras that. 
I ordered a Taycan in Oak Green, it looks very different under showroom lights than it does real world.
Real world on an overcast day it's much darker.
Showroom pick:-
Real world pick same car:-
Overcast drizzly day on my drive:-
The last two image are much more prepresentative of what the human eye sees. Cameras seem to lighten this colour somewhat under electric lighting.

I’m not sure tbh - I swapped a normal slot that I think I would have had by now for a PTS slot which they said could delay it up to 4-6 months, to which I said fine. They did say it had moved to 2023 now that you mention it, but also said that means it will still be in delivered in early Q3 this year - I don’t really get why a 2023 car is delivered in 2022 but I think that’s a “thing”
I’m glad I haven’t had to lock it in yet as I’m still non the wiser
R, maybe you should start with the preferred colour for the various stripes and decals that will obviously be added, then work back from there on the body colour I’m glad I haven’t had to lock it in yet as I’m still non the wiser
