Default A couple of GTS cabriolet pictures...

popped into Sonnen as Brett had a Sapphire Blue met GTS Cabriolet pretty close to my spec awaiting delivery... here are a couple of pictures which do *not* do it justice...

I wasn't able to confirm the MFD "Carrera S" splash screen... sorry










it was overcast and pre-dusk so the photos do not do the color justice, in person its simply AMAZING ... probably one of the most stunning blues in the Porsche palette *ever*

Larry, you're killing me. First your car locks, then you point out that Brett's other GTS orders have started arriving. All while I'm still sitting at V200

I'm killing you! - how do you think I feel looking at this car when my twin is 4 months away

reaching for the wine now ... drinking to forget.

This car had the Rhodium Silver GTS pkg ... very very nice indeed ... apparently they also took delivery of a carmine red coupe a couple of weeks ago ... sold, as was this cabriolet

wear loose fitting pants and/or take some tissues with you when you collect your car ... Sapphire Blue is simply f*cking stunning in person, I think its
probably the best (non PTS) metallic blue Ive seen on a 911 *ever* ... and
I had a 7.1 GT3 in Cobalt which I thought could not be beaten ... until now.

If these cars dont get us laid ... I dont know what will!

Looks stunning sans duck tail. Did seeing the car help you with your decision? What did you think of the anodized black trim bits?

Even if its doesn't the car in this color is simply stunningly beautiful ... the Rhodium Silver GTS interior is stylish ... if I hadn't locked I might have changed my mind and specced that!

I was in two minds about going, because having seen the car, every day of teh next 4 months is going to be tougher!

No one noticed the DBM GT3 in the background?

Well, that blue is nice - in a sedate, refined, I want to stand out but not too much way but it is a matter of opinion on whether it is one of the most stunning blues ever. So, with that in mind (and the grass is not always "bluer"), I welcome Sapphire Blue to the Blues Club but it is your Mexico Blue that IS one of the most stunning blues ever derived from a palette that includes Riviera, Turquoise, Pure, etc. blues. Of course just my opinion!!!

Nope. I wake up every day hoping to receive a note from Brett. No joy yet.
