I have it on good authority (translation: a complete SWAG) that US 2020 allocations for Base/S/T models will be in April 2020. No changes to the turbo 4 engines for these models. Probably more Alcantara options. Again, just a SWAG, so that's my source.

As I've stated in another thread, I'm number 3 in line in Salt Lake for a 2020 Base/S/T allocation. The GTS is a separate allocation. There are over 150 in line here for a Taycan allocation, as of October 2019. Wow - that's quite a few, for a first year, new model, all electric. I'll stick with Porsche's best (718) thank you very much.

Check out these colors from the German Configurator. The second pic is not GT Silver. These may be nothing new and I don't know if these are 2019 or 2020. Just hoping for some new color USA choices for 2020.

Starting at 4200 ft and nowhere to go but up, the turbo should serve you very nicely ?.

I hope you can report your findings sooner rather than later, but sounds from your post that it's going to be later unfortunately.

I believe the color in pic # 2 is Rhodium Silver Metallic, which was offered along with GT Silver Metallic starting in MY 2013. Porsche dropped the Rhodium choice a few years later, and kept the GT Silver option.

Forgot to mention; Have fun with your 2020 build!

Love our Sapphire Blue Metallic BS. Regardless, Rhodium Silver with red leather would have been my 1st choice.

If you look on the UK or German configuration you'll see that the new colors are the two shown above, Dolomite Silver Metallic and Aventurine Green Metallic, plus a very nice if you're into blues Gentian Blue metallic. The Dolomite does look like it's heading in the direction of Rhodium Silver relative to GT Silver.
