Beautiful color. Well done.

As you know, I was waiting for these pics. I chose the Agate (wanted something more discrete also), but seriously considered the Mahogany. Carbon fiber and red stitching...excellent!!

Can't wait to see some outdoor pics in various lighting, sun/clouds/night, etc...

i think your degree from medical school makes you a doctor and not your GT3 by the way

the GT3 just makes you a cooler doctor. i would LOVE to go to a doctor and see Porsche things/memorabilia in their office. id be so busy chatting about Porsches id probably forget why i was there int he first place.
99.99% of doctors would NEVER buy a car like the GT3. Most are much to conservative. Most of my non physician friends think I am a boring, conservative stick in the mud. The physicians I know think I am wild and crazy guy living life on the edge....which I am compared to most MDs. I hate to stereotype of this generally is the case. Of course, just the fact that we would what a GT3 is and aspire to get one makes all of us here pretty cool people....

I'm a doctor too; however I only have a TT. I'm in the conservative Midwest and quite a few of us drive Porsches.

I'm not exactly sure what the difference in the gearshift **** is, but for those who were wondering, here's what it looks like with those options!!
Trapezoid speaker only with SC. If no SC then you get round speaker...

Wart comes with satellite radio. If you do not order satellite radio, no wart. However if you do not order sport chrono and you order full leather dash you get the round speaker. If you order sport chrono and you order full leather dash you get trapezoid speaker - don't ask me that is just the way it comes out...

Not sure what you are referring to about wart on dash??? Are you talking about the sport chrono?

Yes. Mooty I think referred to it in similar terms. "Third nipple" perhaps. I have to search so I don't misquote him.

Yes, round speaker opening apparently comes only with full leather dash and no SC (wart??)...

Default from a mooty post 991 GT3 forum

Have you seen it in person on the 991GT3? I agree completely on past versions, but this one is much more integrated. It flows with the dash design much better than the after thought wart of versions past.
