Hi really there is no seat and no belts on the rear, but just for fun we have tried to go to the rear of the GT3, and with the LWB it's not easy but possible as you can see below

Looking forward to getting a 6MT version sometime in 2018. It will be a loooong wait. Was originally planning on white (for the first time in my life) but those scoops have me thinking a darker color might work best for me. Same old black as usual I guess (only this time with silver wheels).

STG, thanks a lot for working this thread. And I see that Jalopnik is a fan too!
Hi Bluehorseshoe, don't be worry about the rear air scoops, in reality they are perfectly integrated below the rear wings. And the design is absolutely fluent and with no question about that. .2GT3 is much more agressive and sportly design.

We originally went in there planning on building a white one, but fell in love with Chalk. It looks very "beigey" on the online builder, but it is much more of a light grey in person.
Nice... I just con figured at my dealer in toronto. Went in thinking one thing. Left with chalk. And carbon buckets. Lots of carbon. Red belts n stiching. Super jacked!

Not easy to take this picture and result is not very good

what is everyones thought on black door handles? i tried it on miami, chalk and white, with satin black wheels and black headlights. i think it looks nice with the wing endplates and mirror undersides. maybe its a bit much.

I think it looks rubbish. It is one of those options like painted side skirts which is there to make money rather than to enhance the car. And I'm sure people with no taste but it in droves.

No like the door handles. I want them to disappear not draw attention to them. When you do a deviating color that is in your site line that is where the eye will wander.
