All Club Coupes have the X51 power package for 381 hp. There are only 50, and each is numbered inside as " PCA, X of 50." The base car comes standard with an Azurro California exterior, X51, short shifter, PSE, sport chrono, sport wheels, aluminum door guards that read "911 Club Coupe," console painted in exterior color, PSM and PASM (i.e. all the normal stuff on an S). Really, the color and specialty markings are the only item that is different from what you can order.

All you guys waiting, I assure you--you will be absolutely blown away by California Azurro Blue. It is a major, major hit everywhere I've gone with mine. And I'm not kidding.

Photos do not do it justice--and it's not a Pina Colada color. Absolutely, positively the best color Porsche has put on a car in a long, long time. Personally, I hope they never offer it again--it's that good.

Brunswick is Georgia--where mine came in 3 weeks back.

I think the color looks great. Hope to see one in person. I'm just surprised that someone put a front plate on the one in the pics.

Agreed. I think it's awesome. I remember when it first came out, quite a few people thought it was hideous. At the time, there weren't any good pictures so people could get a realistic idea of what it looks like. It looks like a richer, bluer polar silver to me. Can't wait to see one on the street.
