Emmanuel, my car was delivered on October 25th the first .2GT3 in San Diego. Sorry you missed the delivery.

indeed I missed that !! where has my head been??

In Vegas, baby...

hahah, it's hilarious to me how people just assume that when you live in Vegas you are partying 24/7 (I know you don't, but its the typical response). I've just been working hard to see if I can finally join the P club soon, Macans are starting to look like a good possibility if I play my cards right and push a little for next year.

Looks like at least 50% of GT3's in the US are Manuals (sorry if re-post):

Not surprising as a manual helps relieve the tedium of driving in the States and makes the GT3 seem even more special.

Sweden is at 10% so far. Quite a bit lower than what I expected even if I did not believe in US levels...

First picture of the Christmas Grinch. Wasn't planning on sharing it yet as dealer specced the wrong wheels (platinum vs. satin alu). But I have to admit it looks quite good on these as well.

Food for thought:

Looks quite good if you ask me, thanks god no shiny silver rims (wouldn't go with the color or PCCB).

Stupid question: PCCB for the track? I know that this is, I think, the fifth generation but is it really that suitable for track racing? Wear and all?

Grinch? Suits you...oops...the car. Smiley

Looks great, no doubt, enjoy in good health, congratulations. Smiley Smiley

RC, not taking style advice from you unless I'd want something plain black, but appreciate the input. angry

Regarding PCCB, it's hardly a track car for me. I lack the time to go on track more than 3-4 times a year, on the street I consider PCCB a plus, and it looks great.

You have chosen well my son Smiley . Do not be seduced by the Dark Side - stick with the aluminium wheels - they will "ping" really well against the Olive and the yellow callipers. Aluminium goes better with the retro Olive colour.

Those rims look better then I thaught they would , but .... they are neither , nor. Not what is needed on that color car

Get serious and go all black on the rims , or go satin silver for a fresh look that will suit the color better then the titanium

I learned from the best! Smiley

It will be satin alu for sure, I'm pretty confident the spec will turn out perfect that way.

Food for thought:

There is a I think Swedish (od Danish?) Mini-TV-Series called “The bridge”. One of the main characters (a female police office) drives an old 911 in this colour. When I saw this car I decided to buy PTS olivegreen if I’ll ever buy a Porsche again.

Perfect GT3! Congrats

It's a Swedish/Danish cooperation. For anyone who hasn't seen it, I can highly recommend it!
