Saw another touring pop up at one of the P dealers, but for the life of me, I do not understand people who spec their cars with central tach in a bright red color, and even less, those who feel compelled to have the vent slats and the interior trim painted in the exterior color.
I know, I know, to each their own, but that dramatically reduced the number of cars I am possibly interested in.
The less the better folks… THE LESS, THE BETTER on these gorgeous car!!!
- End of my morning rant. Normal programming can now resume.

I can see the appeal. looking at an image is one thing, sitting in the cockpit is another. 991 is pretty austere, if you want it to feel different from inside the cockpit you're going to need some elements that really pop.

Re overrevs --
Wading into an area where I'm not particularly knowledgeable, but asked my indy to run a report when mine was in the shop a couple of years ago, just for kicks.
Believe that report indicated both overrev stages hit and the timing of the overrev, e.g., stage 2 at x or y hours or minutes of operation.
Is that the case with all overrev reports? Not sure.
Maybe something to consider as the cars get up there in age, owners, many have some stage 1, 2, or 3. When the overrev occurred would be of interest to me as a buyer. Was the stage 2 or 3 hit 10 or 10,000 miles ago? If the latter, apparently not much damage done.

But for a touring, I would err more on the side of classy/boring.
Again, beauty is in the eye of the beholder and am not telling anyone what they should like. Just stating that as I have to consider a used GT3 given the current supply/market conditions, it is not always easy to find a decent spec out there.
The search continues…

I am honestly surprised that Porsche AG even approved such an oddball configuration…

Sorry, for both the silver and red 992 tourings, I cannot get over the painted front fascia- the winged version looks so much better. Thought it would grow on me, but so far its a no go...
