Outstanding job of photographing the lines on the GTS.

Thanks very much. I only had my iPhone, but it did a pretty good job.

Looks great! The GTS may be the best combination of performance and practicality in a 911. Hmmm, I haven't tried a GTS yet...

It felt like a large 911.

The only thing that I didn't like about the GT3 was the wing. (Just wasn't for me) The GTS is missing the last thousand RPM's that the GT3 had, but other than that, it's a pretty amazing car.

Beautiful GTS...great color, although I am biased since mine is same color Mine does have the factory aero kit and I am ok with the wing....Never was in love with it though in pictures, but once I saw it in person I thought I could live with it and have no regrets. My last Porsche was an '07 turbo which I replaced with a new '09 Vantage. It lasted 7800 miles before I got the itch to be back in a 911 (took a brief C63 AMG coupe detour though). Great car, wonderful exhaust note etc... but just lacked something??? Happy to be in my GTS. Enjoy!

Simply stunning. The GTS with that color combo screams classic Porsche. Beautiful.

Thanks for all the nice comments. It is a GREAT car! I am really enjoying it. I have a BMW 7 series as my daily - the GTS is supposed to be "for weekends", but I can't stop driving it!
