Over here the only paint that cost extra are the "Special Colour" GT Silver and Lime Gold, plus PTS..

All others (4 standard and 8 metallic) are N/C.

You are lucky people... Haha

But to be honest... Porsche (especially the 911) is pretty expensive here compared to some other brands.
For example: Ferrari 458 is CHF 24k ($26,500) CHEAPER than a 991 TTS. In most surrounding countries the 458 is equally priced or more expensive than the 991....

One can even spec an FF with some options for only $10-15k or so more than an equally equipped TTS.

Still the Porsche density in Switzerland is very high, so it seems people don't bother. Ferrari density is equally as high though.... Sometimes I just don't get those pricing strategies.....

Quite easy they pretend Porsche 991 mechanical content is equal to 458 488 Ferrari
(which is fake)

Question is why only the swiss market believe that that cheating is not in Germany for example

Btw i have a Carrara White Metallic GT3 and just sold a 991 C4S Carrara White
is not like onyx pearl
is like like a kind of ice white

only difference between CW and CWM
the former is slightly yellow or milky white while the white metallic is absolute white without the milk butter tone

also worth to add metallic dots are not so visible

I believe you meant to write oryx, not onyx.

This is a pretty old thread. But just for those who are planning to order this colour.

Here is the information:

It is called "Oryx white pearl affect" and the code is 0K1.

Long story short, the colour name has been changed so there was a ton
of confusion when I ordered my car. They brought in 2 cars and both of them got the color wrong. Ordered the third car and we find out the first
car was the right colour but the name had changed. Anyway, this is the same colour as the panamara 4s middle east edition in case anyone was
wondering. My relative had to actually fly to Germany, go to the exclusive division just to get the colour right.

In order to obtain this colour dealer has to put in the following:


- 99 Custom Colour Metallic
- Z-24931 Color to sample (Oryx White Pearl Effect 0K1)
- Z-90144 Upcharge special exterior color
- 789 Control number for Custom color
