Why are some options available in some countries and not others!?

Patiently awaiting an allocation for a CGTS, I have spent A LOT of time in the configurator. How come some options are available in some countries and not others? PCCB is available pretty much everywhere but the US. Frozenberry metallic is a standard color in Germany but PTS in the US. Different headlights in different countries etc.. There's numerous other examples of this. I'm confused, if it's already available for that model why is it not on the configurator? I've tried sending emails to Porsche and even called in. No response in 3 weeks.

Also, is there a place or way to find out which PTS colors have been used and quantities of each color? If I'm ordering a car, you better believe it will be unique!

You can get a general idea of the popularity of Porsche colours through Rennbow.

OP are you aware that PTS requires a special allocation and these are only available at certain times of the year? If not, I would make sure that you tell your SA that you want PTS.

Porsche frequently changes the colours that are available, both by model and year. Sapphire Blue Metallic was a available for about $700 for 981's. Now it would be PTS Plus for thirty grand. Such is Porsche.
