In fact Porsche usually goes an additional step and removes the mounting points, so the stock cage cannot be added easily after purchase

What about LED lighting?
They actually may be forced to do so by the DOT certification representative assigned to PAG.

If you parked a Mclaren every 20 mins on track or 3 laps of the 'ring I reckon you'll never overheat the car into limp mode either....

Well that depends. It might just be a cunning way of ensuring the highly boosted turbo cars come in to cool off in hot weather than being flogged endlessly on track like the NA GT cars are so do not end up overheating.

My UK dealer is saying March delivery. Can someone please comment when Europe and UK dealers are getting their first cars?
My dealer also said they will likely add one or more
colours by then. Is this likely from your experience?
Thanks

I agree. I know Porsche can't ship it in the car because of regulations, but why can't they give you a coupon to redeem those parts at the parts counter? You redeem the coupon at the "Parts counter" and sign a liability release that says these parts are for "Offroad Use Only". Bam, we get the full package and Porsche is able to placate their US customers. Win Win.
Nah, that's definitely Lava. Lava's one of the most polarizing colors because it never looks the same. In my opinion, it's looks at it's worst in bright sunny conditions where it gets washed out and looks milky. But looks at it's best at a deep darker sharp orange when it's under really good indoor Fluorescent lighting that makes it look like the color of a Persimmon. Then ofcourse there's the really odd time of day where it almost has a Salmon look to it. In some pics it can look amazing and others, eh, not so much. But personally, I've seen the color in person enough on 3RS's to know that I actually like the color but in my opinion must be coupled with black wheels and wing uprights.

Premiums in Europe
Unfortunately I was NOT able to get an allocation at list price here in Switzerland ...
Now I am looking at premiums.
Looks like the current level (asked) is about 90k CHF for an official Swiss allocation and about 50k for a German "import" allocation.
The Swiss official cars can be had ONLY with a leasing arrangement from AMAG and the re-sell is "forbidden" for 6 months ... not that I care as I plan to keep the car and drive it a lot, to complement my 993 GT with a 991 GT2 RS, possibly in the same yellow ...
Any info on the premiums asked in other european countries?
Additional intelligence would be appreciated to help pulling the trigger.
Anyhow the car (GT2 RS) looks like will be less of a "flipper's festival" than the latest Porsche GT products ... also the collectors' market is cooling off significantly here in Europe (IMHO).
Thanks
