I think when all of our cars come in we need to arrange a little Texas get-together!
Love to. I never really do anything with Lonestar PCA bc my schedule never seems to work and I prefer smaller groups anyway - ADD I guess. I’m dying to check out a T car. Love the whole concept. Did you go all the way with it incl radio delete? Not sure I could go that far but totally respect those who have the discipline. I cannot wait for my NA GT3 but I gotta say the 3.0 turbo motor is super. My GTS was super quick with PDK - tons of torque. My Targa is a manual (as you well know) and its terrific - much more satisfying to drive but not as quick. I completely get it now! Hell how fast can you go around here anyway.... Well pretty quick. I was clicking along the Allan Parkway out of Downtown this eve - top open - great weather - few cars and I could have been arrested Targa with its extra 300 lbs still moves great but I’m sure a pig compared to the T. So get a light weight no frills 911, thin glass, loud and raw with that 3.0 turbo and slick short shifter - wow gonna be fun.
Soooooo many beautiful cars and colors. It's not a targa, which I love, but pleased with my GTS sunroof delete. VooDoo is one of the more common PTS colors and I'm please with the outcome. I ordered July 1st and took delivery Feb 9th - 7 months.
Rear wiper - well done. Beautiful car and unusual spec with sunroof delete, rear wiper, PTS etc. Super.
Got my 991.2 Riviera Blue GTS last month... This color puts a smile on my face every time I see it. Had a local body shop (via my detailer) paint the key shells Riviera blue as well

Wow this is absolutely beautiful! Love Riviera on the GTS. Enjoy!
Nice to see this thread again, and I guess I'd better add the Brewster car. Base Carrera 7MT again, this time in Brewster Green (a Pontiac color, I think). To my knowledge, there is at least one more 991.2 Carrera coupe (base model) in PTS Brewster Green in the US, having been delivered to Texas.
Looks great Pete! I remember you were going to do something with spacers, are they on the car in these pictures? And is that the standard ride height?
Thanks!
Yep, it's on 5mm factory spacers all around. While the rears look very good, the fronts could come out another 5-6mm visually—though I wonder what that would do to the handling. Suspect there's a reason the fronts are inset (there's a ratio someone mentioned on a 991.1 GT3 launch, and while someone in the Motorsport wanted to space the fronts out for the visuals, the handling people said no). For now, I am going to stick with the factory spacers.
Only thing on the car that isn't factory are the TechArt springs and DSC controller for the PASM (you can read more in this forum's "TechArt vs H&R" springs thread). The mods are light, with the only other items being PPF, a leather center console trim to cut glare around the shifter, and Euro side markers (the dark green + orange actually looked good, but the yellow calipers ended up being one color too many...). Will add some wind deflectors from AWE and call it a day, as this is a lease.

This is by far my favorite Rennlist thread. The PTS greens (especially this one and British Racing Green) and blues are so cool. Great pics.
Beautiful Green 911, I think my next one will be green! Right now there is a beautiful Irish Green Cayman at the dealership in San Antonio. I love the color, might make my next 911.
Forgot to mention that Dbull65's 911 is also one of the coolest and unique PTS 911's I've seen (unfortunately in pictures only as opposed to in-person).
