NS2, your brake rotors look like the 'iron discs' based on the hole sizes.. . yet with yellow calipers.

I know you didn't ask for feedback but I like the 911R one the best - colors all match and looks pretty classy. Although I'm a big fan of the stripe making a street car look like a race car i.e. all the sponsorship and logos, etc just doesn't work for me and makes the car look out of place on the road. For full on track car that spends all its time on a track then that's great.
And although I've spec'd my RS with the GT3 RS logo I haven't convinced myself I'm a fan of the font - I think I like your "911R" one more.

You are correct! Just a quick edit based on a photo of a car originally with the iron discs.

Funny you should say that, often times when asked how I'd wrap a GT3, I always feel either a simple OEM style side script or nothing at all looks best. Despite that, sometimes it is fun on a track car to step outside of the box, after all everything is removable. :-)

Where did the XM antenna go on the new RS? The configurator lists it as standard equipment, but I don't see the typical wart on the roof.

Anyone know if they moved it for 2019 RS?

Thx,
Ryan

It’s still on the roof but agreed not reflected on the configurator. Already checked with my SA and the sales manager over two months ago. Hate that unsightly roof ornament.

Trying a play on the 911 R style stripes:


And some "Porsche Intelligent Performance" inspired stripes from the RSR:
Nice work! I am partial to UV. Too bad it was not an option on .2 RS. Glad the client was able to get PTS.

Odd, perhaps not standard in Germany? There is no roof wart on the car in this video. I was so hoping it was gone with the .2.

Not sure now also went back and looked at a few 3RS pictures and the video of the debut and no wart apparent. Maybe my dealership is wrong....hope so. Maybe some of the people that have taken delivery can chime in.

Enlarge this picture of the first 991.2 GT3-3RS in California and it looks like there is a wart.

Went back and under standard electrical equipment there is SiriusXM radio, DK sounds like roof wart central. I never want SiriusXM but if there are people that love it then it should be an option you can select or deselect.

I like the look of the "wart"

If the car didn't have one, I'd go aftermarket and retrofit one.

Could care less about functionality of the SiriusXM and what-not.
