I have the opportunity to move from my much loved end of lease C2S 2006 manual into a brand new 2012 GTS Aero White over sand full leather PDK. The car has not yet arrived at the dealership so I test drove a PDK and got a good feel for what it is. There no sacrifice of the sports car feel etc... But the colour combo of the white over sand beige, with black wheels in the GTS... Has anyone seen this? Any pics? Thoughts? I'll post pics next week when it arrives...

I , for one love the color combo. Very clean, dynamic look. I do not care for the black wheels on the GTS. I know they are a very nice wheel, but a black wheel just isn't appealing to me.
Aero Package looks very good on a GTS, the wide rear looks good with the wing, almost a GT3 RS look with a different wing.

Hummmnot sure about the clean white and sand but with black wheels....would have to see it in person but I'd think it would look cool.
My GTS with Aero is going to be black but with silver wheels.

Coupe or Cab?
Wheels are the easiest to remedy if that is the only issue. White over Sand has been around for years and can be very easy on the eyes, so I would not fret over that.

(not a GTS but color combo in question):

We have done a lot of painted rear center consoles for White/Sand customers and it breaks it up nicely. Add Black mats, and that will tone it down a notch too.

It will be a coupe. And here's a link to a Spyder White over sand and black but with those groovy red door pulls. The red pulls really look smart against the sand and white and accent the red tail lights and brake cals. Possibly in this GTS red seat belts, a white painted rear centre console and black matts would really light it up. I'll post pics next week when it arrives.
Check out the Spyder.

I've heard that! The recent problem in our area is that if you are going 40+ kms over the speed limited the police can impound your car and it dissapears for week! Higher than that is some rumour that it dissapears forever... Whoa.
