The cost is astronomical because they need to take the car from Leipzig (no individual paint capabilities) to Munich. In Munich, the car needs to be disassembled, painted, reassembled and shipped back to Leipzig. I would have liked Imola Red, but at 25k it was an easy pass. In fact, when Porsche jumped up their PTS price from $5500 all the way to $13k, that pill was already difficult to swallow (and I doubt I'd swallow it again, especially with the typically poor PTS paint jobs, but that's a different topic).

Do tell more about the "typically poor PTS paint jobs", I haven't heard anything about it and am curious
