No, waiting to hear back from them. No great hurry; my default choice right now is actually a GT4.

if you can get one ...

did you see that Evo magazine voted the GT4 the eCOTY 2015 winner?

Yeah, I saw that. I do have a GT4 on the way but it's a tricky choice: GT4 might be more fun to drive than 911 GTS but does it end up actually being less fun because you end up not driving it as much? (less seats, front lip more likely to scrape, etc.)

It's a dilemma.

If I had the choice between the two, I'd pick the GT4.

The GTS lip scrapes anyway, and on the GT4 its unpainted vs painted, so its "easier" to replace ... GT4 will be more of a classic than the GTS which lets face it is a parts bin special, and frankly no one rides in the back seats of the 911 anyway unless their 5 or legless... (not drunk)

8, 6 and 4 for me and they ride back there all the time. For me it's the tasty GTS.

13, 11, 10, and 9 for me. They might mutiny if I replaced our 911 with a Cayman!

A business couldn't get away with being closed on Sunday's in Southern California. When visiting other states it trips me out to see so many businesses closed on Sunday's. Sure go to Church, I do too, but please open your shop at 12pm or so and close at 5 or 6pm.

And manuals are far less common than PDKs. Carmine is a great red, if you like red. Porsche North Olmsted had a Carmine GTS cab with MT, CLs and only a few hundred miles on it. SA told me it was a long time customer who buys cars, drives them a few hundred miles and buys another new one. Rinse and repeat.

Its quite annoying, makes driving on Saturdays unbearable because everyone is cramming in the shopping.

Chick-fil-A needs to open on Sundays too.

Well, I made my decision. Goodbye 911; hello GT4! Thanks to everyone for the advice.
