surathdp - I'm curious why you didn't get the PSE, since you seem like even though the standard exhaust sounds good, you were intrigued by the PSE?

My 2006 C4 has the PSE, and the sales guy said probably less than 10% or so 911s are ever ordered/built with it. I've always wondered why that's so?

In the grand scheme of all the other options out there that don't provide as much sensory input, the $$$ required to get PSE seems to be minimal. In fact, PSE would probably be one of the top "must have" options if/when I ever get to order my own 911. I'd even rank it ahead of some of the other techno gizmos that don't provide near as much sensory enjoyment during normal (street) driving.

I'm just curious why more people don't get the PSE option?

I honestly don't think there is a bad color for a 911 is there? You may not care for it personally, but all colors look good on a 911...

I know I dig it and I'm the one living with the decision.

I'd pass on the Guards red myself as I already have one.

If it was me, .... I'd get a white one... I think the white makes the 991's lines kind of work. Black or Red interior...
I dig Rivi. I dig Mexi. Mari too. I like color. so it'd be red for me
