Ice Blue Metallic is the coupe in the photos. I have a one ordered in this color but it is the Cab with Black top and tons of Carbon Fiber on inside. Black with Blue Inserts on Interior.Maybe a Oct Delve but nothing is certain yet. Still Waiting for final paper work from Porsche.

I don't know... but the Turbo and its DFI engine just don't excite me like the GT2/3 do. Now that I see all these chicks driving PDK Turbo cabs, I worry that these are the new Merc SL's for the housewives and girlfriends.

I'm hoping VW will turn Porsche into a more focused sports car brand again.

Once upon a time, there was no need for a GT2, because the 911 Turbo was the baddest Porsche you can buy.

Unfortunately, this is not even close to true anymore, hence the need not only for a GT2, but now even a GT2-RS! Purists now have to spend double over a standard Turbo for the excitement we used to get from the ol' 930's and its various derivatives.

Well if it's for the latter, it may just be money well spent!
