[QUOTE=Loess;13074900]They are still building UV cars as of this month.

I actually like UV with the silver wheels better but I think I would still get the standard wheel because it is special to that colour car. I've only seen a couple of pictures of this combination.

That's correct but I already have the satin finish wheels on my 991 GT3, so I think it's nice to have something different this time. That's maybe the main reason I didn't want this car to be white too.

How about yellow stitching to match the yellow calipers and seat belts?
This is really nice, only downside was that when I asked for that yellow stitching the reaction from Porsche was they will charging like approx €8.000 for it extra Quite a lot if you ask me. Can anybody confirm this? Or did they make a mistake?

Thanks for your input. But with the clear tail lights I always have the association with japanese tuning cars. Also with some very bad looking Aston's
Don't want to step on someone's toes, it's just a joke. But actually they look the best I have seen on the 991 RS.

As for the color white, I've decided against this, just for a simple reason because my 991 GT3 is already in white. I want to have the feeling I actually step into in a different car

Thanks for your reaction! I agree with that!
But it's quite sometime I had a car with silver wheels, and I really like them. But there is no way to spec this car wrong. I think I would be happy with it in all colors.

Thanks for your reply.
Please share some pics would love to see it!


Silver wheels look great and no cost option exclusive to UV, same as orange no cost option with leather. I wouldn't change anything except maybe add LED lights as I found out in Germany on the Macan the 4 dots per light seem to help sweep the left lane..
For now I specced them in silver. (to match with the wheels and wing) but also like the black LED's and the PDLS black's, so I'm curious for this. Not sure yet.

I don't know where you are but in many European countries the deviating stitching is between 3600 and 4000 euros and comes as an option package. Ask your dealer to check options CXP (no clubsport) or CXL (with clubsport). There are eight colours available.

The UV cars have a brighter colour wheel called matte aluminium which is different from silver and platinum.

Thank you for this,I will check it. Do you know if that is the wheel option showed in the picture of the Ultraviolet 991 RS showed on this thread?

Agree with you in most cases. But IMO clear tail lights looks great on white. Blends in well with white.

Black wheels was really popular in Europe 10 years ago. Had it on my 996gt3mk1. So for me its a little yesterday. Black wheels have really grown in popularity here in the US lately.

I love white cars but with Eduardo's education on PTS I've started to appreciate color. 😃😃😃😃

Good luck with your choice.
