This car had 32000 miles and the paint held up very good. When it went back to the dealer as a trade in the Sales manager was blown away!

Wish I could take artistic credit - but it was a dealer spec'd car. It had everything i wanted except the color. But honestly I loved it. If you want to turn heads the GR with black gloss gets attention!

My car was guards red. One of the best things about it, actually. The color popped, it was fantastic. That's just me, I don't like dull colors in 911's, gray for example has never done it for me

LOVE GR!! I've had 2 of them. My cars spend 8 months outside before going into winter storage and neither has shown any change in color etc. 2018 still looks perfect.

What a waste...half a year without driving it. I sure couldn't do it.

For the fellow who wanted to see guards red slats:

It's been done. No need to repeat.

It is the salt that I am most worried about. Otherwise I would put on winters and drive it year round

Then I would move to somewhere they don't salt!
