Pre-DE day for us in Savannah and somebody brought their brand new toy. (Hint: it's not me!)

Nice! I got my build date fixed for April 11. My order locks in a couple of weeks and after that no changes. So it's back to the drawing board to finalize spec. Rhodium / Black wheels / black 4 way with full leather interior and silver stitching is way up there. Then again I sway from silver to white to red.... Arghhhh!

Here's my friends new GT3 a few hours ago at TN PCA Winterfest.

Me also. Sounds like a tough, but wonderful decision. Enjoy it. All three colors are perfect. I normally wonder about red, but since the GT3 gets so much attention anyway, from Kojacs with Kodaks I mean (interesting that no one born recently will understand Kojac, Kodak or CB - all 3 are now largely historic) - it can't do any more harm.

Funny, I have been giving serious consideration to a Targa and for me, it just looks correct in red. I love silver, but it just does not go. If I pulled that trigger, and, it is very unlikely, it would be red, or possible custom - there was an old forest green Targa I used to love.

Anyway, let us know if we can help lighten the load of choosing and waiting!

I want one till find I find out how little my '13 is worth to the stealer - while of course paying MSRP + guzzler for the GT3.

GT3 probably the only Porsche that won't bite you so hard on resale. That said,
Porsche will build as many as they can sell.

Could be worse-look up the resale on an early 2012.

I was at my dealership yesterday when lo and behold, a black on black with black head lights pulls out onto the street. It was menacing and had an amazing road presence. The owner upon driving off the lot scrapes the entire front splinter. I could see it coming a mile away. I was tempted to take his keys away based on him not being deserving. Ha!!! :-)

You would hate me - I drive mine dirty, in New York City, in the winter, scrape the splitter all the time going into my garage and in and out of various places - I just drive her - I know I will have to replace the splitter at some point (being careful or not) so why worry - Just drive baby!

You make me feel guilty. I bought my C2S with all intentions of it being a DD, but haven't driven it since early Jan. with this wretched winter we're having.

I am also driving between 600-800 miles a week right now, so maybe best to let the little Subaru rack up those miles.

I hear you, MrOutside. My C2S (leased in June '13) is also a DD, but with the crazy winter, incessant snow and ice and the ridiculous potholes around, I succumbed last week and got myself one of these to drive when it's really bad out.
