Sticking with white and one of first in US for delivery.

+2 It didn't cross my mind to delay my July build for a PTS. It would drive me crazy with all those amazing PTS colors from Maritime to Viola, I could write a thesis on it.

Mine was confirmed today as well and no, it isn't Green. I"m hoping for Camoflauge. I'll have the only one out there!

Confirmed by my sales manager for my .2 RS. Changing from WP in white to non-WP in Voodoo.

Ugh don’t know what to do.

I’ve got a September delivery date for the 3RS. If I want to get PTS I have to submit to change my build date to December, which is when PTS opens. That means that even if they approve the change of build dates and approve the pts, I won’t see the car till April next year.

I think I’m going to pass on it for this car.

Any word if WP is compatible with PTS on USA allocations?

Would be ok if they offered PTS once for every GT model and then said "sorry you missed it". But the ambiguity is frustrating especially spending this kind of money. Instead its, bring sacrifices to the Porsche gods, pray & chant, give the right people the slap and tickle, buy multiple cars today or back to back, and you *might* get lucky and get PTS. Not sure if I'll put myself through this hassle again and finally understand why people have sworn it off - too bad I didn't like the R8, or something else. Really just can't wait for it to get here, so I can get some enjoyment out of this.
Congrats. I went through the excruciating PTS process with my Touring. After several delays, it should arrive in September. Was told I can get an RS if I trade in the Touring, but I don’t want to give up the 6 speed.

As to PTS, if it's a later build in year it might be worth it. I just could not wait another 4 months.
Yes the GT2RS should be delivered in December.

On the 3RS the difference in delivery would be six to seven months ... I just don’t know if PTS is worth it honestly.

Thanks - I’m excited. Likewise! We think similarly. I personally would do the same if I were you. The new 3RS is an extremely impressive car but for what I want I’m sticking to a GT3 MT.

Some super ghetto chops, just to give an idea. Not the least color accurate, so I won't label them, but you can imagine which is which -
