I am a big fan of the folding buckets, I have now had all the seats Porsche offer and, at least for me, have decided that the folding buckets are the most comfortable, I am only 173cm so don’t really know how somebody of your height might find.

@Chris3963; thanks for sharing the pictures, looks incredible. Proving once again there are no wrong choices just different tastes. How do you like the AMG GTR?

The GTR is a great car. Different but no less great. Most of my friends prefer the GTR hand downs. More drama, more theatre. I prefer the GT3. But I would not frown upon anyone who chose a GTR over a GT3.

A couple of comments on non-WP vs WP. When I selected the WP, I was in two minds because I was starting to lean towards the all green colour scheme.

Coincidentally, when I picked up my car, the dealer had just received an all green RS so I was able to compare the non-WP vs the WP car side by side. To my eyes, the WP car look so much more aggressive. It looked lower and wider and much more "race car". In at instant, it dispelled any doubts I had about the WP.

Hopefully, some LG non-WP 3RS owners will upload some pictures.

My dealer told me that he was told by Porsche that no further RS allocations are expected. Is that what you all have heard?

Though I ordered mine without WP, I understand the points you made and they are good ones. In the US we see a lot of cars especially in Southern California with different colored hoods and fenders but not for the reasons Porsche does it.

Nick nice car but I won’t lobby for an allocation anytime soon.
