Default Picked up my new GTS (kind of)

Well, I own a 2015 DBM GTS, but it's not a good day to drive away with stock summer tires. If the weather clears over the next couple of days, I may take it out around the city (at slow speeds). Otherwise, it'll go straight to storage for the rest of the winter. One way or the other, I won't be able to provide real-world driving impressions for a couple of months.

Apologies up front for crappy pics as the car is being stored inside at my dealership in a dark corner.

btw, anyone notice anything odd about the multi-function display?

Default Where's Waldo - re MFD

Took me a bit to figure out I had to choose the right photo and then zoom in. Then I found it!

So did you try to fool us all by rebadging a "normal" Carrera S? Interesting - I'm sure we'd all like to hear the dealer's explaination and the fix! Kinda funny actually but makes one wonder about the ECU, etc.

Love the interior and the deviated stitching. Hope spring comes soon for you - but whatever happens I'm sure it won't be soon enough!

Leather air vents with deviated stitchings! You certainly have a style.

Funny you mention, I was watching a video review of another GTS cab and it showed the same thing... Carrera S in the MFD and not GTS. Would be interested in hearing from other (non-Cab) GTS owners to see what their MFD shows.

You went all out with the leather. Good job. More people should option their cars like this.

Interesting. What about the 50th Anniversary Edition? Does that say 'Carrera S' too?

Nice! Didn't realize you could order just the carbon fiber shift ****. Expected it to be part of an entire trim package.

I see you opted for the lighted door seals.

I'm glad the previous owner of my 991 C4S ordered them.
