I was at Geneva today and sat down with a guy on the configurator. Apparently the standard wheel colour with ultraviolet is an aluminium colour which is even lighter than silver.
They might have an actual sample panel of ultraviolet on the stand tomorrow, will check it out before I leave.

I don't think you can get a factory delivery between October and Easter due to the requirement to have winter tyres fitted. You could up until a year or two ago but it's changed.

Silver wheels are the fastest, they refrack the light around them resulting in
thinner air = less drag
And in addition to that they make you smile
Oh and Purple is the second fastest color and it may even prove in the near
future to be the fastest .
now every time I see a FEDEX truck I instantly think RS .

Maybe I missed it somewhere, but why are the rear wheels 21's instead of 20's like the front has? From the rear 3/4 view like the pic of the UV posted a couple pages ago, the rears look so big that it makes it look like a Hotwheels toy car. I really don't get why the different sizes.

I have found the quote now:
"At the rear, the new 911 GT3 RS is muscular in appearance, aggressively so when seen from the side. The 21-inch wheels on the rear axle not only improve the footprint, traction and lateral dynamics, they also help to provide a
slight forward pitch, which hints at the car’s hunger for acceleration."
it is from the 991 GT3 RS Catalog.
