Just my opinion, but my eyes see a tasteful colour combo - spoilt by the tasteless stickers.
Everyone knows it’s a P O R S C H E - why plaster a big sign down the sides. Subtlety undone frown

If I can get PTS am thinking about either amethyst or gulf



Amethyst was on my short list too, but I was worried about the Heritage Interior with it; if I'd gone with the black interior I think I would have gone with Amethyst. But my specification locked last Wednesday, so Yachting Blue Metallic with the Heritage Interior it is!

It's all optional isn't it? All the stickers, just the script or nothing.

In my dream where I get an allocation, I spec without any stickers then immediately regret it when I pick it up.

Congrats. I think amethyst works with the heritage interior.

I thought it was a fair bit. I was watching it fot a while, but there are far too many ST variants you can have for a lot less!

Lovely car. What's the flip price? 499? 750?

There was once a day when these cars got driven....

To be fair the owner is a serial Porsche buyer since before the first 996 GT3. He has pretty much every car and still has a few of them including a GT2RS. I'm sure his made a few quid along the way moving some of them on though!

The GT4RS was around £500K, what with this being limited and numbered, then yep I'd imagine £600K+, suspect someone will chance their arm at 700K+

No 4RS went for £500k. Max bid was £300k.
