Congrats on your Touring Package RDM. Yeah, that's my Golf Blue GT3...the car will get paint correction and clear put one before it heads west. I'm planning on flying out to Houston on the 24th and drop by the dealership on Sunday the 25th.

Lol, I was just there this afternoon and drooling over both cars. Congrats to you both...they are absolutely spectacular. I spent about 20 minutes walking back and forth saying....."to wing or not to wing".

Golf Blue is fantastic!

Thanks Martin! My car is waiting to go to Xpel. I guess they were closed last Thurs and Fri. Gerald was telling me that they aren't making any more Saphire color cars after June. I really debated between that color and PTS Irish Green. I decided I just couldn't wait for PTS. My car looks like the press car. Love your Golf car. Great choice.

I was at PNH yesterday and this afternoon and love your touring. Wow what a car and love the color. Finally looking at getting back in a Porsche after 9 years.

Congrats on the cars, both look great! Golf Blue fits the GT3 very nicely.

Wish I could get a callback from PNH - looked at buying a 997RS from them last summer (fantastic service and responses) and passed on it in favor of holding out for a 991, have inquired about 2 since and crickets from them. Must be too busy since last speaking with them.

Martin, Your Golf Blue GT3 is the best looking GT3 out there. I had a voodoo blue GTS two years ago and loved it. But the Golf blue appears to lack the purple hue that voodoo has - making Golf the one for my eye. Golf blue with black accents on GT3 = perfection. Enjoy buddy

The Golf Blue looks very nice -- better than expected. It has me thinking I should have chosen Arrow Blue instead of "Confidential." Hey, colors are like women: variety is the mother of enjoyment (j/k - sort of. ). I believe that GT3 RS 4.0 has 15 miles on it and can be had for around $700k.

Porsche North Houston looks like a car show 365 days a year, a very appealing collection of cars. This silver 356 is Art, such lovely curves.

The Golf blue looks way more appealing than Voodoo, to me at least, in person. Its not as bright as Voodoo, and has a lot more richness to it. Voodoo looks like a modern color. Golf looks like the throwback hue that it is, and really compliments the classic shape of the 911's curves. It was a treat to get to see it.

+1, Golf > Voodoo for me. Definitely more throwback (as we can see the 912 above).

And for every Golf you will likely see 20+ Voodoos, so a lot rarer too.
