Whose car is it? Answer. Yours! I'm sure like me you spent hours over many months, consummed vast amounts of wine fiddling around with the Configurator. Your chosen spec is just what you wanted. I've got sports Chrono, not sure what it does! Who cares I bought the car to drive, to love and Not to flip! Plus how can your RS be the wrong colour? That colour does not exist! Don't listen to the crap that some people post on this forum. We are very lucky to own a 991 GT3RS smokin
Absolutely hours and hours, I even spec it now, even though it's locked in!

The colour is obviously not wrong.

Just everyone says, hmmmm, nice colour but it's never been seen on a 911 since 1973....

And yes, us owners are v lucky, just annoying to see so many being sold so soon.
Annoyed Porsche have sold them to flippers, but, hey. Not really my problem...

relax guys.
Doesn't really matter what colour or spec as long as its right for you and you enjoy it in the end you are going to get all you money and more back in a couple of years time when you trade in for the 991.2 GT3 RS well until the next big recession hits. So its welcome to the Porsche GT club where its free motoring once you have joined and maintain membership. Don`t forget to buy the odd Cayenne or Panamera along the way to maintain full membership. You can buy them with the profit on your GT2/3RS when you trade it in. Don`t dwell on the flippers most of them are 918 owners who were given preferential supply on the GT3RS as a thanks for paying for the development of Porsche`s hybrid sports car. They are generally not 911 orientated.

Agree with this - my simple view is : don't flip , drive instead : maintain a good working relationship with OPC - share the benefits and you'll end up with amazing cars that's are virtually free - sounds brilliant to me smile

How many of you guys that have ordered the RS have specified Sports Chrono Package.

I haven't, I can't see the use of it, whether I'm on track or not. Just couldn't see value in the £1000+ price.

Of course I may of just completely devalued my car to under list!!
Especially as it is also the "wrong" colour!
There isn't a wrong colour for the RS!

Not the only, but certainly eye catching. Looks too good to drive.
