I still have about 7 months for mine to reach here. Those black wheels on the GT3 at thermal look great. That is what I spec'd for mine. I have noticed not many have ordered the lower moulding in body color? Is there a reason why, I did so it could be wrapped vs the plastic stock.

I will be picking up my GT3 in Miami blue in Zuffenhausen in June. I’d like to stripe it, but I’m apprehensive as to the color. Do I go Silver with black accent? How about flat black. Or shiny black with red accent? What to do, what to do?

I'm looking forward to my MB build being done in Nov! Seeing these pics confirms with me, that I made the right choice.

MB looks great, it's the color that I would get for the .2RS if PTS is not available.

I believe the reason most don't spec this is because it slightly plays with the evenness from front to back. The lower part of the front and rear also have black plastic that is consistent with that of the side skirts (you can see this line most clearly in the pic of the GR car below). when you paint the side skirts it looks to "stick out" lower than the front or rear. It is minor but you can see it. If you don't mind it, go for it.

PorscheFrank, Nice, this is my spec! Any other photos? I am likely going to Platinum wheels though...yellow stitching

What is the mirrow option code? It's black on top and blue on bottom???

MB is an amazing, unique color. For those with iPhones, I found it useful to edit MB pics and change to ‘vivid warm’ in the defaul edit options to show the green tones better and what you’d see in real life

I've yet to see one photograph that truly captures the richness of Miami Blue. Almost every picture makes it seem too much like turquoise or on the other hand like Riviera/Mexico blue. In real life however in the sunshine it is a rich deep color that's totally different than all of those

That is so true - you really can't capture it in a photo. Even the warm iphone filter puts too much green in it. Was at an event this weekend and everyone loved it - really stands out in a crowd!

A little blurry but a difficult shot to capture
