Hey Adam,

Glad to hear that you are warming to it, I knew you would. It's just too good a car for you not to like it.

Would love to have a look at it sometime if possible. Drop me a pm, we can grab a beer or something.

Congratulations on the new car and sympathies for expectations that were not met. Drive it a bit more and you can always trade again should you change your mind. I did that a couple times in the past, sometimes those are the risks you take when you order a vehicle before physically getting behind the wheel yourself.

Good luck with whichever choice it is none the less!

They are ALL special. All 22 of them currently offered in the US

Does anyone really wonder why Porsche is one of the most profitable car companies in the world? It's because everything they make is a 'special' edition, and they charge $500+ to paint little trim pieces for soccer moms in Cayennes.

Whatever, though. They have done no wrong to the GT2/GT3 lines, and that's all that really matters to me.

I think I saw your car as well. I went to look at my RS as soon as I got back from my break and saw a GTS in your spec on the floor.

I've driven my RS a fair bit now, apparently I don't need to run in the car - I just do it as I'm so used to it and would rather play it safe.
