my guess is that it is Mexico ... sigh not another one!

Yeah got home Saturday night ... I went back to the Ring on Friday night and put in an extra 8 laps Saturday morning before heading back to Frankfurt ...

I was driving a 320i coupe ... dear god ... no power and almost constant interference from the DSC (which like the M3 could not be turned off) ...

still it was a lot of fun!

thanks again for the chance to drive your 3RS on the track ... its a ride to remember!

being back home now seems very dull ...

I feel we need to organise a rennlisters trip to the ring sometime!

I love the orange, but don't like red, I'd have to say I would go classic orange with black.

Porsche wont PTS the gulf colors due to a legal agreement they have so any car would be aftermarket paint

I had heard this as well except there is a "Factory" Gulf Blue '05 Carrera GT floating around. I was looking at it in '07 or '08 when it was for sale (Champion?)

Easy you match the color you want change it by 0,01 in the chromatographer call it BLUE HOTEL or something instead of Gulf Blue and order it. Copyright busted.
