Thanks guys. I'll do some proper photos at some point over the weekend, typically it rained on the drive home after 2 weeks of sunny weather so a wash is required.
We only had 2 days here in uk to spec the car with no photos to go on other than the green release video/images and obviously the configurator which is never 100% representitve.
i decided to go white with gold to be safe more than anything, I had a feeling the majority would order green so didn't want to go there
the gold wheels imo are mandatory for this car, it's the trademark of a gen 2 991rs
as the images of green, red, yellow and crayon started emerging i was sure I had made a mistake going white but when the cover came off the smile was huge it's the best colour imo. The black accents, black led lights, naca ducts all look right and the gold wheels with red calipers give some colour.
The white matches the stitching on the interior, and I also went with red dials to match the calipers and give the interior some colour
for some reason I wasn't allowed to spec different colour stitching unless I dropped the clubsport package? But the white stitching looks fab!
the noises this thing makes when changing gear made me laugh all the way home, a completely different experience to my 997 gen 2 rs I am offfically a PDK convert
oh and there is also no run in required, hammer from day 1!

Awesome, grats! Love the white with gold, am pondering changing my wheels from satin black to the gold as well. I'm also considering the red dials so interior pics appreciated sir.
