I have never used the AC in any of my toys dating back to the first one in 2006. The only reason for getting it would be for resale and I seem to not be able to keep a toy for more than 2 years. But if it was a keeper and achieving the lightest weight was important to me than I would check the delete box

The first touring package car is out. White with pccb's, lift, led's, and buckets.

I haven't seen any radio delete or a/c delete cars yet.

Thanks for the update!

It will be interesting to see what the mix of touring vs wing from this point on.

I never understood why this would be such a negative. Guards Red was described as "orangey" under certain lighting conditions and it can be, but where this is seen as a negative, the 6 layer Volcano Red color shift on McLarens is stunning or amazing.

Also, GR is the 3rd most popular color for the .2 GT3 in NA.

If PTS Saffron Yellow never happens, then Lava will be my choice.

Aluminum wheels and chrono? If it's your car it also has a note on it that says "Flow Timing" which may be the factory tracking the first, or one of the first, cars down the line.

Yes, Aluminum wheels and chrono! In any case, it's ahead of schedule, which is great.

Looks to possibly be record numbers.

The production numbers as at Nov 8th above are interesting. If correct, it shows 742 Nth America bound GT3s in 16 weeks of production.

Assuming the factory works 6 days/week that's a total of 742 days of production capacity.

And assuming they build around 20 GT3s a day, that's 1,980 GT3s built since Production started late July. So Nth America production accounts for around 40% of total production capacity so far.

With the GT3 RS not coming on stream until late March, that means there are a further 18 weeks for production capacity at up to 20 units a day. That's another 2160 cars or over 4,000 in total.

The introduction of the GT2 RS will no doubt put a bit of dent in these numbers but I think it does show that a s*@t load of GT3s will be built. Before the end production, its easy to see that they could pump out 6,000+ GT3s.

but I guess it makes sense since they made, what 6000 .1RS?

That would be awesome and IMO basically guarantee a MSRP one to anyone who wants one.

When the 3RS and GT2’s start arriving hopefully the decreased 3 production number is offset by the “I gotta have whatever is the new thing RIGHT NOW OMG NOW NOW...oh look a squirrel!” buyers/ballers/flippers/guidos etc. who don’t really even want or care about a GT3 10 seconds after something with one more HP is introduced.
