Olive Green G arrived today
G63 finally arrived. Spent 5 hours with my best friend this afternoon doing paint correction and then ceramic coating on areas not receiving clear bra. Happily he is super into it and guided the process. Off to clear bra and tint tomorrow and then will finish the ceramic coating over the clear bra on Sunday. Ordered the Olive green never having seen the color in person and was a bit anxious that I'd like it in person. Happily it exceeded my hopes. Great color and works so well on the G. There is so much depth of color in this paint.It really is stunning in person.

Will post some more pictures once the clear bra is on and the detail is all complete.

Saw somewhere that G has "scratch resistance paint", anybody have details on what that means? Also it seems that G has laminated acoustic glass for the side windows. Anybody with details on that?

Gorgeous g63! Congrats !

no, it gets scratched, I think it’s just more resilient top coat than before.

If you look at the windows when these are half rolled down, there are 2 layers of glass.

Btw, love your forum name and the Porsche stable- purist indeed !!

Yeah! Looks really great in that color. That's the kind of color that doesn't mind getting dirty.......and still looks really good. A very nice choice for sure.

Emerald lighter and brighter in color. Very different look.
