I am hoping both our shipping gets bumped up somehow. I need a sports car asap. Chicago winters suck and I am itching to drive something fast

Mine just hit port in Houston... Another week, but with my luck will be at the Derby when it arrives at the dealership.

Wait, were you able to get them to do the GTS under the porsche logo from the factory without having it say "carrera GTS?"?

Makes sense, looks great. I originally had PORSCHE with the 911 under it specced, but I just saw the one GT silver one in the other thread (first experience with 991.2 gts) and it just had PORSCHE but its more centered as a function of badge delete and looked great, I would have had to rethink that if they allowed a GTS only badge.

I am so jealous. I have a Sapphire Blue T4GTS on order, due 6/30. I was not as brave as you to get black/bordeaux interior, even though bordeaux was my favorite interior color. Ended up going with black/luxor. Have to say bordeaux looks great. Less garish than garnet.

Wow....what a car. Effortlessly quick!!!!!
RWS it feel really nimble on the road. Those coming from 991.2 GTS (like me) may find you miss the growl a little at first but it really feels like you're driving a different car.

Will post more pics and impressions soon.
