110 miles? They would have been better off buying a die-cast model instead:

Hi all,

I have a PTS GT3T at V215 as of last week (woo!). However, I'm beginning to... have some second thoughts about my choice in color

I'm thrilled to have a Touring on the way, and plan/hope to keep the car for a very long time -- which is what leads to my concern. Will I love the color I chose when it arrives? Will I love it in 1, 2, 5, 10 years..? For that reason, I originally thought about playing it safe and going with White or GT Silver, but the opportunity to spec PTS was hard to pass up, and my request for Maritime Blue was approved. I was initially drawn to Viola Metallic, followed by Meerblau, and a few other dark blue metallics. Concern with Viola was that I'd outgrow it quickly, and Meerblau was a little too elegant for me.

Anyway -- is "PTS remorse" (a la "buyer's remorse") a common thing? And for those who have received a car in a PTS color they didn't end up loving in the end -- what did you do? Wrap, sell, or did you eventually find an appreciation for it?

Please go easy on me -- this is my first time configuring a Pcar, much less PTS :x

Thanks in advance for any and all guidance!

Don't be silly and rest assured, maritime is one of the coolest colours you could choose.

Just got a call that mine is now V215......GT3 Touring, Gemini Blue Metallic 335, CXX seats (graphite blue leather on buckets, houndstooth), deviated stitching, side stripes, a few other small bits. Delivery was late Nov before the CXX stuff, now showing 1/19. But of course that could change. Something to look forward to anyway.

I just got word that mine left Emden yesterday aboard the Rockies Highway. So naturally I plugged that into the vessel tracker and what do you know?? Next port of call Bremerhaven...which is in the other direction, lol. It's going to be a long couple of weeks...on the other hand, this puts it about a month ahead of what I had expected

You'll have a bunch of takers if you decide you don't like it. If you didn't pay too much ADM, you'll make a profit if you want to sell.

I didn’t end up with PTS. I really love Miami blue but decided to go with my gut and get chalk. Can’t help but wonder if the scarcity of GT3 allocations is the reason I chose a more subdued color that I know I won’t tire of.

Greetings all,

Got the call today from that I am locked for 12/26/18 delivery of my Viola Metallic GT3. Submitted a request for Gulf Blue on the last round of PTS but did not make the cut, so extremely excited about my Xmas present. Going with yellow stitching, ceramics, and PDK (my wife wants to drive it too) and an NS2 decal set/detailing. Special shout out to my SA Britton who has been such a pleasure to work with on my first PTS car. Best of luck to all who are still waiting for word on their cars!

Of course it's worth it. Remorse yes- only that I can't have every color I like at once. Viola, Olive, Golf Blue, Viper Green... the list goes on and on!!!

Gang - mine got moved up a bit. I locked on 6/28 instead of 7/6, so looks like it moved up a week.

Is it even possible to get the car before Labor Day?
