my comments are borne out of jest and frustration at being still far from receiving my car. Jealousy also.. Yea, definitely some jealousy there. Oh, and envy, but that's it. But mostly jest.. Red and yellow look great.. License plate?... MOMO, or McMOMO? Jk!!!! Ok, going to sleep.. Have ACL surgery tomorrow.. Will have some recovery time to harass people about their color choices. Me.. Still undecided.

Great comparo.. Yea, red looks better with white IMO also. However, with dark blue and agate grey I think they add to the look.

I do like the clear front side markers though. Waiting for Suncoast to come out with the new clear LED ones so I can pre-position a set for my GT3.

With LED headlights, the side markers are LED also. I imagine the wiring is different and they are likely not interchangeable, but who knows.
Just checked - the LED ones are interchangeable. Not cheap though!

Separate auxiliary light modules in front fascia with daytime running lights, position lights, front and side LED flasher repeaters, and darkened front light modules
I'm confused....

Maybe I'm misinterpreting, but are you saying the LED side markers only come with the LED headlights, but incandescent side markers come with the BiXenon's? Seems odd, since the DRL's and taillights are all LED regardless of the headlight type. Plus there's this from the GT3 standard features:
Separate auxiliary light modules in front fascia with daytime running lights, position lights, front and side LED flasher repeaters, and darkened front light modules

me too, don't you just need to switch out the orange plastic covers for clear plastic covers on the front side blinkers? Why do you have to mess with the actual lights?

You can't just switch out the orange lenses. On US cars the bulb behind the orange lens is clear and the marker with housing is all one piece. When you get the ROW replacement markers it's an entire assembly, which includes the housing, orange bulb, and clear lens. The question here is whether the GT3 has LED side markers or incandescent ones. I've now heard from another source that they are LED on the GT3 and Turbo and incandescent on the regular 991 Carreras. The ones Suncoast sells are for the regular Carrera. At least that's my understanding......

I like Macca red tail better 
The clear tail will wear off after a while. Side markers always get changed on all my P-cars at delivery.
