I left LA for SF to go home. stopped to get gas... got on I5 and 90 minute later, I FINALLY realized I was headed back to LA.... I do his often... getting lost that is.... I got on plane to Boston landed in NYC once.....

gets better. I work in SF financial district. I don't leave office for lunch in fear that I cannot find my way back to office.

I have to say I agree. I would have killed for PTS blood orange on my 991 GT3 (I did try a PTS slot for RHD back in August 2013 but was told it would affect my early delivery of the car by 6 month - then stop sale - so im glad i took the advice!) and I love the model for all its detail in orange as it shows the contrasting changes unique to this variant, but in real life I feel its a little OTT. By comparison the 997.2 GT3RS I have seen in the flesh (especially a friends who had the decals removes) looks crisp and "clean". The high rear spoiler "towers" look cool but are very tall this time around. Im not sure why they chose to use contrasting black for the rear engine cover ventilation grills - Id probably want those done body colour. Same perhaps with the "turbo" rear fender inlet ducts. Id be curious if the black front fender grill details/vents are infact a plastic insert, again if i ordered orange i may look to have those colour coded as well. The only hard and fast design fail for me is the rear bumper treatment (sides of read bumper have an over and under design). Just some initial thoughts. Ill be awaiting price and spec before making a call off but it will take alot for me to give up my 991 Gt3 which is proving a very practical car on road and track...
And it's a one trick pony, it will be great for the track only.
It won't be a car you could drive to work, to a date, for a long weekend trip with someone, etc, and then rip up the track the next weekend, like you can with the 991 GT3.
I'll be very happy to stick with my GT3.

I could be wrong...but I don't expect that PAG will offer PTS on the first year of the MY2015 991 gt3 RS. It will be those four or five limited color combos....and that is it! They don't want the 'headaches' of PTS on the first year of production.
Who would have thought they would live to see the day Mooty would be bothering to mention a preference for the exterior color on his next gt3? What's next...an interest in 'deviating stitching'? Inquiring minds want to know what has happened to the 'Marlboro Man' Mooty we thought we knew! Next we are going to find out he uses 'Clinique for Men' Maximum Hydrator on a daily basis and twice on track days!

Agree with Macca. The RS exterior is too busy for my taste, very likely to have a much harsher ride, not enough of an increase in performance to justify an extra $50,000 in cost over the GT3.
