Default My New GT3 RS

Just visited the dealer to say hello to my new track demon. I can't pick up the car until Tues. The CO hasn't shown up yet. Fairly loaded car. NAV, lift system, sport chrono plus, full leather deviated stitching, dynamic lights. I didn't order the car, more options than I would have chosen. My dealer was offered it right from the port. I said yes and it showed up 3 days later. Here's a few pics from the dealer's showroom. I'll take some better pics when i get her outside. Now I have to figure out what to do about a rollbar. the OEM version is harder to find than I thought.

I found the guys at GMG Racing in Orange County California to be great to deal with. Ask for Fabryce. Check them out. Their cage bolts to all factory points so no holes or weld plates. Your dealership can install in minutes.

Good luck.

I looked at the GMG WC bar, but I wasn't sure on the mounting. So the 2011 RS has the mounting holes near the spot where the seat pads would normally go? They aren't visible and I can't feel them under the carpet. The holes near the floor are there.

Is this an '11 car?
I thought all of the '11s had the black steering wheel trim...like the CLA option wheels.

you have to cut the carpet in order to install a roll bar and bolt it to the tub. no biggie.

The Picture of the wheel is the stock wheel for my config. I did not order the CLA option for the Alcantara Wheel. As far as I know Stock wheels have Alcantara with silver trim.
