How can you not love it. Is Mooty correct? No sunroof. Two questions: How? Why?

In UK, as in the rest of the world, sunroof delete is an option. US doesn't get a choice. Probably PCNA marketing decision in order to make the RS more exclusive. The dealers are reaping the windfall, as they are charging huge markups over MSRP on the RS's.

BTW, beautiful car, John!

Actually, I'm pretty sure that when I ordered mine I couldn't even have had a sunroof if I'd wanted one!

(Which I didn't, so nobody offer me their's, please).

I see the sunroof as a safety device. Allows you to look up at those bridges as you are passing under rather than hanging out the window. All in good fun. Hope you have as much fun with it as the rest of us very fortunate owners.

John: Your pictures are great. I would suggest you to use some light photoshop work, like removing the plates, increasing the contrast and changing the light. White cars are great to photograph and you have the talent. I took the liberty to made a quick mod of one of your photos as a suggestion. Sorry for that.

Simply gorgeous modern 911. Any "sunny day in England" interior shots?

BTW, the reactor complex in the background is an nice touch.

Thanks for the eye candy.

Yes, the sun does occasionally shine even here.

Thanks for the comments and advice. Haven't really done much photography of late - I must get back to it now I have a new 'muse'.

Zicaramone, I love that image - any chance of doing that for me with the full-size version while I play around with Photoshop a little? It's HERE.

C???

I like UK registration numbers

Can't you have B16 GT3?
It can be read as "Big GT3".

I know B16 GTS (928 GTS) and B16 CTR (Ruf CTR 1).

Yes, the C is for my middle name.

'B16 GT...' would have to end in a letter - nice thought, though.

John - sweet car, very nice pics. It is nice to see pics of your car other than the inside of your trunk (or boot)!
