The GT3 looks really good in SY. Not normally my best color, but that looks hot! I love it. The yellow trim, stitching etc., also look good.

Great looking GT3, love the yellow

What wheel is that, interested in replacing mine (do not think I would go for carbon but interested if that is the 997.2 thicker wheel or something else, any detail would be great).

Congratulations and welcome to the asylum. A similar car in Guards Red just went through my local dealership last week, with 500 (not a typo) miles on the clock. My son lives in Portland - looks like there are some good Porsche roads once you get out of town. Is there a track in the area of The Dalles?

The black wheels really set off the yellow. Congrats on this beautiful car.

I had a Phoenix yellow M3, whenever a speed yellow Porsche was around I parked far away!

It is the thicker alacantara wheel, the same optional wheel in the RS. The carbon fiber pops in the photos but looks much more subdued in person, it matches the seat backs exactly.

Oregon Raceway Park! A fantastic natural terrain road course. Plan your trip to coincide with a DE.

Speed Yellow is the "so right" color on a GT3! Congrats!

Way cool - congrats.

I was under the impression that DEM could not be retrofitted to early '10 cars like mine - is that incorrect?
