I do have an ED spot, it's for a December build and am glad to hear we can leave car for a bit at factory before picking it up

How did you drive it without a front plate?

Great looking car. Congratulations!

Just out of curiosity... the first picture has the orange side markers and in the fifth picture they look clear. Did you have the replacements with you or is there just something about how the fifth picture was taken that makes them look clear?

Love your pictures, Jim! Hope the trip was everything you hoped for. Your sig line reflects the only downside to ED; having to wait a second time to get the car.

Well, if you're going to be there, driving the Grimsel Pass and Furka Pass is a MUST!! We were supposed to take delivery of our new GT3, but it was canceled of course for this year. So did a Turbo instead (GT3 comes in December) Photo of the Furka Pass drive below... The drive is... AWESOME!
My goodness that is a gorgeous picture. I pick mine up this week - only wish i had the time for euro delivery... someday.

Amazing photos (really professional and a great artistic eye)! I'm sure you had a wonderful trip and covered a lot of spectacular territory. Your car looks stunning. Thanks for posting!

Thank you! The pics don't do any justice, White looks even better in person.

I only removed the front plate for a short time to film or take pics.

Thank you! I took the clear side markers with me and then removed them when I dropped off the GT3.

I think black looks so much more aggressive.

Thank you! My co-pilot (wife) and I managed to keep an eye on the scooters and move out of their way ahead of time. The only person I wasn't able to get away from was the illegal street windshield washers.

Black headlights on your car look a-mazing. Black wheels do too, but platinum is also nice. Black headlights nail the look though

Thank you <3mph! I sure did. The wife definitely has an artistic eye. This is another great composition (Monte Carlo).
