Default I Can not sit still

Guys I am a calm person, it takes a sesmic event to get me excited.
I have purchased an 09 Cayenne TT S, an 07 GT3RS and an RS 60 Spyder all within a year and never got so excited untill this afternoon when I GOT THE CALL......time to configure the new RS....I hope I can sleep tonight.
I am thinking: Blue/gold or maybe red with silver wheels, PCCB, Front lift, leather/ Alcantera, Alluminum foot rest an ipod adap. and illuminated door sills.
Need more help on the color

Huge congratulations. I'm green with envy.

Are you going to sell the 07RS? (I'm not buying, I'm just curious)

Everyone has an opinion, go with what you like. My feeling is that gold accents do not belong on cars. Too many gold Lexus emblems and Avalon rear licence light fixtures for me!

But, Aqua Blue is the color!!!!!

You lucky dog.
I'd go with white or the grey/black with red. I'm hoping someone agrees with me and loads the car up with the options that everyone seems to not want (nav etc) so that someday when I can trade up I can find one!

Hmmmm...let me think.............................. Yeah! Blue/Gold haha

I saw an Aqua Blue metallic 997.2S this week at PSDS and it is very pretty. Jewel-like in the sun. A very nice deep blue, and with the PCCB's and light gold pieces I think it would be stunning in person.

Tough call on the spec though...I keep vacillating between stripper and full "stuff" (NAV/iPod/Dynamic lights/front lift).

Look- either way, a hell of a car, and 50% of Porsche enthusiasts will either applaud or condemn you!

Oh yeah congrats YA BASTID! Some of us are still painfully awaiting word of our allocation (or not).

Blue it is (they had a Cab in Aqua Blue) in the showroom and it is the best color option IMO. Did not go with the contrasting gold (too much BLING) on a 42" screen. Got red with silver wheels instead...
While driving to the dealer I drove the Boxster,69 in NW OH today...and realized that the basic sound system(what is in the Boxster) compared to the permium (what's in the Cayenne) is worth the difference in price..so that was added, same goes for XM nav and blue toof....All I need to do to counter the added wt is track it with 5 gallons of fuel only .Car will be May Build..so the count down starts.
BTW: Kermy not 4 sale. The X50 maybe
