I cant comment on this just yet as I pick it up this Saturday but here's mine

Awesome, congrats!! I DEFINITELY want your feedback. I haven’t seen Mystic green in person and I am anxious to see whether it truly looks like the picture below. I am also trying to determine whether high gloss black or standard (gray) looks best with Mystic Green.

it's way way way cheaper to get any Porsche exactly the way you want it than to start over and do it again with your next "more correct" order - at the end of the day Porsche options are both excessively expensive and insanely cheap depending on your perspective…

• excessively expensive: charging for something that is included in the price for most other vehicle's - terrible and unquestionably margin boosting profit taking evilness
• insanely cheap: $x,xxx for any given option against a $150k+++ vehicle that you should own for 5+ years - what are you really saving by excluding something you actually want and will notice it missing every day during your ownership period…explain this to me?

I'm unaware of any Porsche options that make the car worse by adding them to the vehicle - but I could be wrong…

get the the vehicle the exact way you want it and don't look back…this is one of the "features" of a Porsche that you can get the vehicle exactly as you want it - if you want "standard" vehicle that's what the other vendors are for and excel at…they are not Porsche.

my $0.02/YMMV

I appreciate the sentiment. I am pretty locked in aside from the rims, tinted head/tail lights, whether gloss black or gray looks better with MG, OR if I should just order a turbo….

I was surprised how different mystic green looks in the flesh...every photo looks different depending on light conditions ...seen it at dealers and I'm going with it
And def gloss black with a splash of turbonite IMHO

Saw same spec on the road yesterday, looked amazing but only had a glimpse as incoming traffic.

Absolutely. Mystic Green definitely needs to be seen in the flesh. I love it, which is why I've specced it.

As an example of how light and the camera can change a colour's appearance, this, believe it or not, is Mystic Green...

I see the window sticker, but this looks more like Pale Blue Metallic. Interesting…

in person, does Mystic Green look like the photo I posted?

Yes and no, during the night it is exactly like the video. It is blue at night/if it rains which is one of the reasons I love the colour so much.

A good example of how you can’t rely on photos and videos for colour choice

I thought it was Slate Grey for most of the video, and even when he showed the window sticker and it said "Mystic Green", I thought he'd shown the wrong window sticker...but I went back and checked the number plate, and no, it's the same car.

I'd say the photo you posted is fairly accurate in certain lights, but it does look darker too.

Is that Monteverde? Somebody in the comments asked and was told "Sage Green", but that's not an exterior colour, even via PTS.

The rear def mystic green

The rear def mystic green

I had a look again at the video, specifically the rear as you've highlighted, and I thought "yes, you're right, definitely Mystic Green. Wow, it looks different again". But then I watched the video a bit longer, and at 4:12 it shows the description in the show room, and it confirms it as "Monteverde".

It just shows you have to see these colours with your own eyes.
