They took GT3 logo off headrests and figured they'd add it here. I'm indifferent to the stripe. Would have to see in person. Probably go without. Like mentioned, new inserts are cheap and easy to swap.

Nice. We need more pictures of the different color palette. They did give a decent amount of colors to choose from I must admit. Now just need to see real pics!

Anyone think they'll be a few stand out colors for the GT3? Or do you think it will just be a big variety?

For the RS, from what I recall UV didn't have the warmest reception at launch, but looks like the most desirable at this point.

you mean a RHD car right from Oz/Japan/HK etc...?

One part of the mad flood for cars here in the UK is that the UK cars are relatively underpriced vs rest of the world as PAG has fixed an old exchange rate. The gt3 in the UK is £112k base vs €152k in germany which is roughly £20k more. And that difference only goes up when comparing the HK price as that's pegged in USD.

Believe it or not I sent my initial interest via email and on the phone in Q3 2014 after missing out on the Gen 1 GT3 ! I was asked to submit a LOI early last year, which I did, but the process changed and they quickly axed the LOI system so i guess they binned it. They honoured my other GT car request though so have no issues with them.Just that the allocation system can be a bit opaque.

Are the wheel/tire sizes the same as the .1 GT3?

New GT3 is ~$355k (base) in HK... good lawd must be one of the most expensive places to buy this thing, God Bless Murica

Good work. I paid a deposit for a gen2 GT3 RS in March 2014 so I guess I'll just have to wait for my shot at that. I think I was 4th or 5th on the list then! It makes me mad when people say that if you want one you'll get one.

What they mean is that if you live in the US and you want one you'll get one
