They do, as a no-cost option. Some of us dig the looks of the centerlocks, though.

From the time it came off the boat until it arrived at the dealership was probably less than 72 hours. The dealer also did a full unveiling experience right on the showroom floor!

So here she is! Note I went with the LED lights and Sport Design rear spoiler. I think this tail adds a bit of character and helps to differentiate it from other GTS models.





Beautiful car!!! Hope to see you at some of the local events!

Plus Porsche doesn’t give us any credit for the “downgrade” in cost from the forged CL to cast 5 lugs.

At $4500 a wheel up here in Canada that’s a sizeable chunk to give up for the stock 5 lugs.

Love GT Silver and center-locks (but I'm biased).
Drive it and enjoy it - congrats and Happy Fourth!

Yessssss!
Well done. How do you like the way the sport design rear adds that extra special 911 profile line detail, esp in GT Silver?
Curious your interior & other options..features/specs that you are impressed by??

Same to you...semper Fi and your car is awesome. Enjoy in good health and be careful in VA...I hear they don't play with those tickets and a new GTS is just a reason to exercise your right foot rights! LOL

Congratulations! Is that you on your avatar? You look so young. Thank you for your service. It looks like they are finally giving you some good hazard pay.I'd love to see some close up and rear facing photos of the aerokit rear spoiler.

Jim, yes that's me....about 10 years ago. Everyone says I looks the same, and remarkably the uniform still fits!

Here are a few photos of the sport design tail with the spoiler in the up position.
