Congrats on your car. Golf Blue looks amazing! And I agree that it goes very well with the red and black. Well done. I've personally always loved blue cars with red interiors (especially classic Ferraris from the 50's and 60's).

Also if your dealer is well versed, if you don't have the SC they can retrofit the few little software extras that come with SC optioned car (e.g. G-force meter, etc.) At least that was the case on my first GT4.

Does anyone have a gelbgrun car (doesn't have to be GT3) around the DFW area they wouldn't mind me taking a look at?

Also, I am wondering if you have had a chance to drive it yet and how you find it compares to the 458, especially on the road?

thanks
still at the dealer. It’s winter here in Quebec, no driving till late April at best
To your question, I have owned and tracked many versions of GT3 and RS includng the 997RS 4.0 and the 458 is more of a street GT car than the P cars
mind you I have only driven a 991.1 GT3 on track a few times so will be interesting to see how the .2 will perform vs previous models

How about the $160,000 Breitling timepiece for the Bentayga?

Bummer...found out from my SA that the recently opened PTS window for .2 GT3's will be closing today...my order is stuck in V100...probably not going to get it.
