Stunning car - congratulations. - I hope that mine looks as good. I have the red calipers and did consider black so we will see.

Yours will be stunning too.
I’m in love with this car (I’ve owned 991 touring and 991.2 turbo S cabrio before). Now I’ve all I want: N/A engine, manual transmisión, rear wheel drive, mid engine and convertible.
😍
and from next week, It’ll receive a new schmid race silencer (I miss the GT3 touring sound) 🥳🥳🥳

Same debate for me but ended up going black... Both looks really good IMO. I would not have specced the silver or aurum wheels but tastes are personal.

Man, love this blue. I'm currently thinking Carmine Red, but this looks fantastic.

Interesting series of cars...the power of the turbo wasn't convincing enough and lack of a convertible top was enough to discount the GT3? I'm considering some of these same cars and love the look of the Spyder but wondered if I'd miss those other elements. Can you share your comparison?

You won't miss those elements. GT4 is the essence of what a Porsche should be. There are a lot of faster cars for GT3 and Turbo money.

Beautiful car!

agree with those who question why the "wart" couldn't be placed elsewhere, specifically hidden

really ruins a beautiful body panel
