Default GT3 RS: Weissach or PTS?

If you could spec a car and you had to choose PTS or Weissach what would you choose and why?

It's actually functional (as minimal as it might be, it's still adds to the performance metric of the car).

PTS? That's really for Porsche circle jerks at Cars & Coffee. There, I said it.

One man’s opinion in order

1. Neither
2. PTS
3. WP with painted hood
4. WP

WP. I'm wheels guy and Porsche Mg wheels are cool. The rest of the package is technically functional and I actually like the looks.

PTS is cool and all, but it's a little overrated to be honest.

WP and choose a "standard or premium" color that compliments and offers contrast with the exposed carbon.

PTS only because the only colors you can choose right now without PTS are white, black, shades of grey and guards red. In a normal world in which they actually offer colors to choose from outside of the PTS palette, I would choose WP. Since we no longer live in such a world, I would go PTS - choose amethyst metallic with neodyme wheels and then buy a set of MG wheels from the dealer or HRE or something so I can get the best part of the WP without having it from the factory.

That changed nearly a year ago where you could option PTS without WP.
I had that submitted, and approved back in July 2023 timeframe....even though i eventually caved and later added WP.
