Default Tony's Signal Yellow GT3 Touring (pics)

Huge thanks to Graham Rahal with GRP for working this out for me and Scott at Veltracon for bringing me the opportunity and helping it along the way. Graham communicated with me throughout the whole process and even went out of his way a little bit when he didn't have to. Can't recommend Graham and his team at GRP enough. It wasn't easy considering my circumstances and recently buying a PTS GT3 6spd but Signal Yellow has always called me and recently seeing all the pictures of everyone's Touring, I realized that's the car I had to have (with the houndstooth of course!). So I threw logic to the wind and ponied up for my true dream spec.

Hennessy Porsche was amazing working this deal as the middle man again. I'm surprised they put up with my crap, but I love them for it!

Exterior shots are all off my iPhone... look perfect on my phone (true to color), but a little more orange on my computer screen. Not going to bother doing any edits. I'll keep this updated with new pics as we go. Hoping to have it ready for Cherokee casino mountain trip this weekend.





Here I am hanging with my old mistress (green)



Love this interior!

Thank you! It's always been my favorite PTS color, but I had never even seen it in person until today. It was better than I expected! Moves a lot with the lighting.

I'll have it at PEC on Thursday night and try to stay over in the hotel and have drinks with you guys after. My son has a Perfect Game tournament that weekend, but I'll definitely have the car out for the fall event with my wife.

It really does or I wouldn't have bought it (), but the touring with houndstooth has been calling my name... finding this spec in Signal Yellow with the black trim I thought was going to be impossible and when it wasn't, I just had to make it happen. The good news with the Gelbgrun car is that it is probably going back to its original owner where it needs to be. He's been lamenting the sale since the day he sold it to me.

Two thumbs up for sure! Signal yellow is an awesome color. Why did you decide to make the change from the winged GT3 to the Touring? Did you go PDK to MT or was it something else? Love the PTS AC vent slats and the houndstooth seat inserts! And lucky you can get way with keeping your antenna wart black as it goes with the overall black/yellow theme, unlike many of us other PTSers who need to get the wart painted PTS to keep the look uniform.
