So what you are all saying is full leather... Wasn't clear to me from the configurator but if you select full leather do you also get the leather wheel?

Nope, leather wheel is a separate option. Alcantara wheel is standard regardless of interior leather.

But you also get alcantara on the doors. It's really a huge difference on the interior. I think for the price of the car, it should have been standard.

I vote Lava Orange. Would be a unique GT3!

I wish I could get it. LO not available until September production and they won't move mine back from July. Bummed... But think either Sapphire or Dark Blue will be nice.

LWBs really make you feel like you are driving a real sports car rather than a GT cruiser. It really was a must for me. I was also able to get the rollbar (Europe spec) which I absolutely love.

Last day for changes. Stressing about color... Thinking dark blue or jet black would be better for less attention on the street.

Thanks again for all the suggestions.

I would go for dark blue- looks great and very rare. Black paint is very hard to maintain (although it looks good)

Thanks for the rec. How do you like Sapphire (and any issues with too much attention?)

also +1 on LWB's
and carbon fiber interior
and PCCB's




A+++ on the Euro delivery--wish I had done this but my car was finished in January
BTW--my color vote between dk blue and black would be for black (with aftermarket gold rims)

Mine is Jet Black, so I am biased. It is imposing. Looks mean and ready to go. Pain the neck to keep clean like any other black car. Scratches can be seen more easily than on lighter colors so SBM is better in that sense. I would not trade though. Good luck.

Couldn't agree more.

I really like sapphire blue. I have never had more compliments on a car's color as I have this one. I don't think it draws much more attention than other colors and probably less than yellow or red.

GT Silver
LWBs
Full Leather

Dark colors are a job and a half. The unique details of the RS should be appreciated and not concealed with dark paint.

This is a GT3, non-RS. Like silver, but without the black trim bits the RS has worried it would be too plain. Thanks for the suggestion, added full leather.
