Perhaps not exactly "research" but where I live, it is a veritable car show every day--all kinds of "rare" cars, everywhere. You'd think they were giving them away. I see more rolls, Bugattis, and mcclarens than GTS's--991 or 997. See 5 or 6 Porsches a day, have only seen 3 991 GTS's in the last year (and one was at the dealer).

The only GTS that will be rare is a PTS one (when they finally arrive)...

A quick look at BH Porsche which I think is one of the biggest dealers in the country lists only 2 GTSs in their inventory and its unclear if these are even available. Does anyone know for sure the production numbers? Jim

That leads to me to questioning how many PTS allocations were given for the GTS.

I couldn't get 1, but then I didn't order until mid-August. I would have really liked a candy apple red.

Fantastic. The painted side skirts are a favorite of mine. I truly believe they are a must have for the wide body cars.

Your car will be here soon, and the wait will totally be worth it.

Might want to get PPF on the painted side skirts too. I hear they get pretty beat up from rocks.
