Great question, and I want to play around with it on photoshop. I wish there had been a better factory option.

December deposit arrives mid-September. Somehow you passed me. Maybe too many individual options...

Yes me too. I’m a bit over black rims. I had them on my 996 Turbo S 15 years ago but I think they’ve run their course now.
Im awaiting a Targa GTS in PTS Amethyst. I also specced a silver roll hoop and the dealer will have the rims painted GT Silver when the car arrives.
I’ve seen a Forest Green GT3 with Neodyme. I liked it, but it’s a bit too Gold for me. I think the White Gold looks better, much lighter and more subtle.

Would love to know if painting the wheels, versus powder coating, etc. will last. I don't know enough about painting wheels, and the quality and also how it works with the center lock. Good luck with your order, and would love to see what it would look like. I agree, stay away from the gold tint.

You actually passed me as I'm not slated to get mine until the end of October. You're right on schedule, and there are never "too many individual options"...

Just picked a well loaded ‘22 GTS coupe with Aerokit and manual trans. Our third 911 and ~7th P-car. So far, a blast to drive.

car looks beautiful!
Love the red and carbon fiber mirrors. Is it carmine or guards red?
I configured mine with carbon fiber mirrors and wished they were all carbon fiber like my McLaren or at least black on the bottom. Only way to get the black was with the high gloss package but that canceled out my red side skirts. Figure I will just get the bottom of the mirrors wrapped black.

Carmine red - deeper, more “red”. Guards has more orange-y hues.
I did the OEM CF mirrors after delivery, to keep the bottom half painted. I like that look and wasn’t an available option.

Beautiful build. Now I'm thinking I shouldn't have let my wife talk me out of the Aero kit, the wing in black looks awesome.
