Default Just picked up a 991.1 GTS in Lava Orange

Hello Guys - new member here but long time Porsche owner. Currently have a Cayenne GTS and was looking to get back into a 911 again. Instead of getting a 991.2 I was hunting for a GTS. One of the things I enjoy most about Porsches is the sound, so decided no turbo for me. My Cayenne GTS is the V6 turbo and I put on the Fabspeed cat bypass after the first week. Anyway, I was lucky enough to find a '16 GTS in lava orange at my local dealer. All my 911's have been black, white and silver. I currently also have a F80 M3 in Yas Marina Blue (baby blue). I'm really digging special colors nowadays. Anyway, wanted to check in to say hello and let you all know that I'm a happy man!!

Congratulations. I have the more stodgy blue M car and less 'wild' colored P car. I'd love to see yours side by side. Enjoy!

Congrats and welcome to the GTS family! There won't be too many of us with the 16 GTS.. Reminds me of the 98 C2S in that way. Modern classic and beautiful NA sound! Cheers!
