Wow. What color is that?

Jet Green Metallic.

My local dealer has both a Taycan and a Cayman GT4 RS in this colour, both with contrasting yellow stitching. Looks stunning.

For MY26, if you choose PTS you cannot get Active Lane Change Assist as part of Drive Assist, at least in the Spain configuator. The other Drive Assist features should work and you can still option it.

That green metallic is pretty good, but it doesn't quite "pop" enough

> why is it called paint-to-sample if it's just a limited set of colors?

You can show up with a Pantone color swatch, or even just your favorite handbag, and they will analyze whether they can-and-will match that color. Unfortunately, they say "no" more often than "yes," I'm told, which seems unfortunate.

Color values are not copyrightable, and it's not guaranteed that ever accepted PTS+ will turn into a PTS choice.

What I want to know is what the different finish options are. Flake metallic, pearl, gloss color, satin color, ... I'm still holding out hope for a fuchsia candy gloss in my next car!

Not copyrightable, but can be trademarked. Now, that particular trademark is for jewelry and jewelry packaging, but it shows it can be done.
