Yes. Not available due to lack of side-impact-protection airbag, which is contained in the seat on the std. GT2 seats, but non-existent on the C-GT seats.

I'm not sure, by the way have you thought of doing full red deviated stitching would look nice contrasts a lot the rather than having full "dull" black leather without contrasting items.

Never really been excited by stitching options to be honest...

I think for the rims get the Carbon ceramic and if they don't let the calipers to be painted red then you could order them just in yellow and when you get the car you could get them painted at a different paint shop?

I'm partial to the white with gold wheels, minus graphics. It feels like one of the race cars, minus livery. The RS is a lighter and more focused concept, so I'd spec in that mindset.

The grey with red does grow on you though.

When you get it, you'll have to come to Knoxville to go up to the dragon with a nice white RS.2.

That yellow GT3 is so drool worthy.

Grey is the way to go w/ the 2010 RS, I like that it harks back to early 911's and the RS deserves a color which will set it apart from the regular GT3.
