Also, incredibly confusing to drop a variant called the 911 Touring right as the 911 GT3 Touring (Package), which has a “GT3 Touring” badge on it, is hitting market too.
Really? 11 pounds? That's like after I eat dinner!

Touring builds start mid to end of Nov, so they should start arriving in NA by Feb or March latest.

Mine is scheduled to arrive first week of March.

I have a Touring that goes V 260 (starts build) on Friday (10/27). It has moved up from original 11/3 V 260. Should arrive first half of January.

Just checked with my SA. He says mine still shows to go into production tomorrow. I trust him more than the configurator. I'll update when I have more info.

Allocation became available to me so I said why not, what do you guys think of this build? Was going for a bit of a heritage car look/feel. Not too crazy on options, but enough that it still feels like a nice place to be. Can't WAIT to compare it to the R after all the talk.

I think a bunch of us are going this way, this is the build they put on instagram and it looks great. I’m still waffling between standard leds or blacked out leds and sofas vs buckets.

I almost always do black, but the contrast of the lighter on the black paint I think really makes it right with the wheels and trim if you've done the chrome trim.

Thats the look I'm going for. Not a track day special for this one. Now a GT3RS or 2RS...buckets on buckets on buckets.

I would just add the back of the seats in leather.

The silver backs look out of place in such a black interior, with a black car.
With a rhodium of GT Silver car, I would keep the regular backs.
