No idea to be honest. I know it comes with the WP, so maybe there's a chance to remove it? I'm waiting for an answer from the dealer and I'll let you know.

I think is just stickers because you can choose different colors as well.

Or the sticker is a hair bigger and will be applied over it.

It is not sticker. AP mentioned it in some of the videos - cant remember what it is. I checked at Exclusive for different colours other than arctic, yellow or red (yellow and red are in the configurator) - and it was denied unfortunately. I have no clue how arctic inserts, stitching and this lettering in arctic shall fit e.g. to green or orange.

I though it was red and blue the standard options for the logo on the rear......if you can't match it to the exterior color the safe choice would be grey and you could tie it with the interior and some Platinum wheels.

A few excerpts from the Car and Driver preview article:

"The engine, while unbelievably responsive and powerful, doesn't seem to overburden the chassis—our driver was able to flick the car around on snowy surfaces with remarkable ease. The 718's steer-it-with-the-accelerator balance doesn't appear to be compromised by the RS's extra horsepower. "

"The fierce soundtrack hits a lot of different notes over the engine's extensive rev range. It's loud too—the engine sits right behind the cabin, and you can literally feel it. "

"Whatever the wait, our initial ride indicates it'll be worth it. Short of the Carrera GT, this car might qualify as the most purist mid-engine Porsche of all time."

Yea you can pick Red or Blue, but it's a different blue from the Interior too. And I think it also changes the Door decals and rear model too.

I'm still waiting for an answer to see if it's possible to just eliminate the rear window one.

I am with you on this. If it was a 911, you would not need to advertise it is a P O R S C H E

The 991 GT3RS also has a Big P O R S C H E on rear wing.
The new GT3RS would also have this, because the PORSCHE can't be painted on the swan neck wing.

The dealer informed me that the factory response was that they do not allow modifications to options that come with a package. But what they could MAYBE do (They'll see if it would be possible if I'm interested, which I said I was), is change the logo to a different color as a CCX option. I said I was interested to know pricing on that.
