Stunning looking Mexico Blue GT3 being picked up by its new owner this weekend. There was a new Cayman in the showroom as well, same colour, black wheels, also going out this weekend. It also looked pretty perfect. Anyone on here? Then, maybe because I was looking, I saw a Mexico Blue Mk2 Escort later in the day!

I think the owner has posted on the gt3 thread.

It's called "The Albino look".

Very interesting post , I enquired about a GT3 about 18 months ago and was told by the sales manager they had been allocated two and both had been sold.

I was in there about 6 months ago and told that the two GT3's that they had delivered had been "moved on " by the original owners.

Now another couple turn up ?

That's an interesting way of being honest with your existing client base.

I think a few people cancelled their orders when the stop sale notice was given.

A friend of mine wanted one, couldn't get one, stop sale came about, people cancelled, he got his order accepted, he got the car a couple of weeks ago.

I guess you had to be pro-active and keep badgering the dealer as they could have sold their allocation several times over.

I really hate those chavtastic lights. Why anyone would spec I have no idea and even more so why would Porsche think they actually look good. OPC Tonbridge had a lovely Gulf blue & Orange one the other week but it didn't have buckets and it had those silly lights. Each to their own I suppose.

Asked the question as a genuine enquiry , asked to be kept informed of any change in the two existing confirmed sales and this with previous purchase history from the same dealership.

I wouldn't badger the dealer afterwards as he had my details to hand , I would at least have expected a phone call from the sales manager keeping me informed of any change of allocation / availibility.

Such is life.
