991 GTS Must haves

[FunMeterAMG]

Oak Green and Rhodium both look great! Nice choices

That's much better outside- quite unique - enjoy!
I've had an urge for an oak green coupe for a while, was considering the aluminium window surrounds with silver wheels. What's the thoughts on that?

Thank you thank you all!
I'm delighted with it. But it's all a matter of taste isn't it?

I agree it looks better in the sunlight. On the basis I have ordered lava orange, I can't really claim to be a judge on colours

Photo in sunlight gives a truer picture of the colour

That looks awesome, congrats!!! I see you've managed to squeeze the family in the back too!!

I love the different colours, beats the standard red, blacks and silvers. All personal taste of course!

I can wait to pick my Targa up at the end of this month! Any feedback you have specifically on the targa would be great!

Enjoy!!

Sunlight makes it look a totally different car!

Having said that i'm biased as the first 991 i ever sat in was a metallic green one back in 1979.

Too much Caffeine this morning sir ?!?! 911 I assume!

Chrome window surround looks great on darker colours.

A few more to whet your oak green appetite tuffer

WOW!!!!

Double WOW......that's a beautiful colour in my book.....I'm very partial to Earthy Greens even though I spec'd mine in lackofimagination Black....well done enjoy

[Bramptonmel55]

Thanks everyone!
I'm really enjoying it. I'm even getting used to putting the lid up and down although I do still slightly feel like I'm performing a striptease when I have to do it in public, as opposed to in the privacy of my own driveway. Need to get a bit more brazen about it.

Drives brilliantly but I haven't had a chance to really stretch it. A trip to the north yorks moors in 10 days will show me what it can really do.. I will report back...

Question, did you have it professionally detailed and coated or is that straight form the showroom? How is it standing up to everyday use, does it show the dirt badly?

[Bramptonmel55]

I had PPF installed by porsche reading before collection but no detail. It seems to be holding up ok to the dirt - but I have quite a high tolerance for dirt before I get the washing buckets out! I'd say much better than black or white, not as good as silver, similar to my previous night blue.

I'd just be keen to know if it can get over the speed humps in the multi-storey, by the cinema/M&S!

[davidc1]

was parked in john lewis , so no hump-ing involved!

I need some advise, sold my .1 GT3, ordered a new .2GTS, I had front lift on the GT3 due to having to tackle an incline into my road, is the GTS higher than the GT3 bumper as standard?

[Jacko.1]

Hi, I'm not 100% certain but am fairly convinced the GTS is slightly higher. I asked my dealer about the ride height and I remember him saying axle lift is not as necessary compared to a GT3 so assume it's a bit higher

i think it's higher and also the GT3 has the extended lip spoiler which would mean the clearance is slightly less when you approach a slope.

I went to the PEC last week for a GTS test drive, and saw the GTS next to the GT3. GT3 was much lower.
