    Beautiful car and color - have fun and drive safely.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    That's what I call a gutsy color!
    Sweet!
    Fits the house perfectly!
    Lots of congrats and have fun!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Very nice, congrats.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    I like the dials and rear center console in ext. colour!
    Very good choice! Congrats!

    Why not???

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    I wish I knew, but basically they said they were not offering it anymore except on Turbos. I begged and begged and explained all of the Porsches I own/owned etc. and it went on "deaf" ears. I called Atlanta many times to no avail - they were downright rude to me..My dealer talked to someone in Germany on my behalf and they wouldn't do it either.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Great color choice! I love it!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Do you have pics of your Carrera GT? Those are always nice.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Chucksweet,

    That is a sweet color. I am planning to get that color too. Can you post more pictures?

    Thanks.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    I also ordered a Yellow S last year around NOV. Delivery will be sometime towards the end of 2005. These pixs here really IS something to keep me going, bless you!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    i hope you enjoy knowing all the cops in your area on a first name basis

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    I prefer black colour

    So much for the bullsh*t about personalisation where Porsche say they will do almost anything! If you can get yellow instruments, yellow centre console, yellow seat belts, yellow roll bars and yellow painted road wheels (presumably) why not yellow stitching if you want it and are prepared to pay for it? Clearly you have a yellow fetish, but I agree it would have been a nice finishing touch. Just looking at your impressive fleet of Porsches, including a Carrera GT and Porsche STILL wouldn't accommodate your every desire? Not much hope for the rest of us, then!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    REALLY A GREAT LOOKING CAR Chucksweet, VERY NICE Colour !!
    Congrats and Enjoy !!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Welcome to the Speed Yellow club!!!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    re>i hope you enjoy knowing all the cops in your area on a first name basis

    I've been driving for over 32 years and I've never been pulled over or ticketed!!! (I guess my time is up?)

    re>So much for the bullsh*t about personalisation where Porsche say they will do almost anything!

    I agree...saying that, I wouldn't be surprised if the don't bring it back for the '06 model. If they do I'll be furious!!!

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Congrats! That car was born to be noticed .

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    That's the first SY 987 I've seen good pics of.

    Congrats, and of course you got the best color.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Nice car! You have a pretty impressive collection of cars If you don't want your 986S you can always send it to me Please do post some of your Carrera GT pictures also in HIGH RES if its not too much to ask Congrats

    Wow, I can't believe it would take a year from the time you ordered to the time it's delivered to your dealership. That is just too painful.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Tell me about it Chris, it's a special order for me here in Japan since they only have LHD for manual but I wanted a RHD so my wait is prolonged. IT IS PAINFUL, but it is something to look forward to. I just hope I get it before I turn 28 by the end of 2005.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    So, in Japan, they allow both LHD and RHD cars?

    Yeah, it would be the best birthday gift to yourself yet.

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    Yellow speed is beautiful
    Congratulation

    Re: New Speed Yellow 987S

    yes Chris, both. Local (Jap made) cars are all RHD while foreign car can be either. Porsche Japan only imports manual LHD but I wanted a RHD so even tho I ordered last year I'd still be at the bottom of the pick list. Sucks being me eh?
