I suppose Oak Green Metallic. It’s classic, and it’s rare in modern Porsches. It’s dark, classy, but not so dark as to be mistaken for black like Dark Olive Metallic may in anything but very bright light.
Porche Racing Green Metallic, Forest Green Metallic, and Jet Green Metallic are hard to tell apart so not so special. Also, they were standard colors at various times in the late 90s and 00s on less special Porsche models (run of the mill 996s, Cayenne’s, etc), and colors like them remind me of 90s nissans, Honda’s, etc.
I love these PTS discussions. Looking at the palette samples EVILFIJ posted, I think the color, tint, etc is incorrect. I tried to tweak it to better reflect Mexico, Riviera, Voodoo, and Gulf. However, Maritime looks overexposed and too dark still in this version:
Been searching for metallic blues and came across the thread. Anyone have a thought as to what colors are on the bottom row, samples 1 and 2 from the left. My build slot is in October and there might be a PTS opportunity to give Porsche some more dinero!

I don’t know for certain. I was there and it’s my pic. I don’t remember confirming this by looking at the back of those two samples, but from memory and looking at the pic I think they are Gemini Blie Metallic (left) and Ice Blue Metallic (second from left). I’m more confident about the Gemini Blue than the Ice Blue but I’m probably right.
What colour is the one I circled and the one above it? I'm a sucker for teal/green and have been eyeing Wimbledon Green as a possible PTS colour for my next Porsche. Does anyone know?

Thank you Lapis! If we could get every member who makes a trip to Exclusive take a sample comparison they way you took the time and did..the drama for PTS decision making could decrease by 50%! I am going to try and male a trip in on Friday 6/22 or get a local buddy into Atlanta to recon for me. Your efforts, pictures and thoughts from your visit are appreciated.
