I agree. There’s a video review of some British guy who bought a MIami Blue Spyder and in that video it looks stunning. Very much in the vein of Mexico or Riviera blue. When I checked out Miami Blue in person i didn’t care for it at all. Too much greenish hue. Nothing wrong with green. Lizard green is a great color as is Riviera Blue but give me one or the other not a muddle of the two.

But thats why freedom is a beautiful thing, everyone has the right to voice their opinion and buy whatever color they prefer.

So glad I picked a Gentian Blue PDK GT4 with black wheels instead of White.

Thanks - love it. I think you will too. And by the way Dunlop’s - but you made a good point when you indicated they are consumables, so, there will be many choices when they need replaced and I plan on burning rubber

It will be interesting to find out what tires mine comes with, not a big deal, just curious. Counting the days now instead of weeks or months which is really nice!

Nice car ISPYA718! On a day like this it makes me wonder why I didn't opt for a Spyder instead of a GT4!!

@ISPYA718 Congrats. Crazy how you already have your car and the GT4(s) from the SC are still in transport. No front plate? Are you going to run like that permanently?

Thanks. Yes I was able to negotiate a few things with Porsche. Transport was one. Yes no front plate on any of my sports cars. Only ticket I got was in the Ferrari. Doing 45k in a 50j and still pulled me over - brutal. Still going to risk it - can’t drill into the front - put cost of ticket to running car. Didn’t get one in last Porsche but this one will get more attention. I keep signing the damn petition in our province but still no change. Quebecers are so lucky😊. Just got back in from a night run - still 29 degrees Celsius here! Car gets better every run. The speeds you can take a corner in this car - wow - love it.

Agreed! Nothing worst than ruining the front bumper and look of a car... plus since july 2018 we have vanity plates!
