Gnil:I didn't like crayon for a long time but it is now growing a lot on me . With the balk accents , it looks stunning . It would probably be my choice now if I would not take LG
Yep...crayon with black "accents" looks very nice.

Agreed, The black door handles work. Not sure about the privacy glass though.

Re: OFFICIAL: 991.2 GT3 RS (2018)
On the topic of speculation :
I had a conversation with a very good friend that has a senior position in one of the big Swiss watch company . I asked him about how they view speculation with their limited models , or new hard to get models, and what they do about it , thinking there is a parallel with what happens with cars .
Answer was clear : we do not care what happens with the watches after we have sold them . It is not our problem . It belongs to the market .
I pushed him a bit further and then he said : Actually we do like speculation , it brings brand awareness, creates buzz, talks on the internet , and .... frustration . Frustration is good for business .
Probably this is exactly what happens at Porsche too

BjoernB:arroganz before the drop.....
imagine in the hotel biz saying - since you paid the stay already......
they will cry on next downturn...and so many customers will be elsewhere...
but for now, the cash cow is a full tilt...
