Thanks - it's Lava Orange but the pictures don't do it justice.

Awesome sauce! The 991 GTS is one of my favourite cars. Great colour too, I'm more of a classic silver or grey man myself, but lava orange and carmine red look awesome on the GTS/GT cars.

Be interested to know how it stacks up against the 997 GTS, from memory you had one didn't you Tuffer? I only kept my 997GTS for 6 months, I was seduced by the 991S at an experience day at Silverstone and though I liked the 991 it just wasn't as much fun and probably a bit too quick (for me) with PDK. I'm tempted to come back for a manual 991 GTS next year so would appreciate your impressions.

Thanks, I know the 991 is a big step up from 997 in terms of interior and all round ability, but I found my 'S' lacked the involvement of the 997GTS and as I said earlier, with PDK it was mental, a bit too much for me these days on the public roads. I know what you mean by the front end of the 997 washing out, but I got that sense with the 991 as well, maybe the GTS is a little more sorted in that respect, overall a great everyday sports car. I have compromised with an RS4 that gets all my golf and cycling stuff in, but I'm looking longingly at AM's and Pork again.
