991 GTS Must haves

[m88ony]

Such a great sounding engine in the .1 GTS the lack of Bose wouldn’t bother me.

The car was sold yesterday (gutted).

Anyone got an opinion on this Redline car?

Well priced, looked well with aerokit, missing full leather and bose mind.

That's rather nice, albeit imo - pricey!

Baytree are a good outfit too

I agree - it's a £75k car.

£6k more than the Redline one. That does look nice though.

looks like the Baytree car has carbon ceramic brakes.

Yes, plus many others which are 'required' for re-sale (roof, interior pack, bose etc). Ducktail wouldn't be my choice, but this looks solid to me.

That’s the beauty of a 911. One for everyone tastes.

Precisely - for me, the clean lines are essential but I know the ducktail or aeropack are massively popular.

991 Carmine, C2 GTS, PDK with interior pack for me. Can't imagine ever needing anything more.

Hmmmm, GT3 sometimes that little more noise may be needed aha

Does anybody have a copy of the 991.2 GTS (2017) price list?

Once the GT3 Touring models drop then, maybe :-)

I have recently bought a GT Silver 991.2 GTS with the standard black centre lock wheel. The wheels need refurbishing and I’ve never really liked black wheels. Has anybody changed the colour on their GTS? I’m thinking of Platinum Satin as per GT3/4 etc. Any thoughts or pics if you’ve done similar?

Ta.

I had a 991.2GTS in GT silver and one of the best Porsches i've ever owned..I much preferred it to the 992S i owned for some bizarre reason.!
Painting the rims not a problem and i'd go Platinum personally as its my favourite Porsche wheel colour..Classy and don't show up brake dust like the silver rims do.

Mine was Carmine and Porsche Wolverhampton repainted for me, £600 I think.

I have Platinum wheels on my GT4 and they look great. Dark, but too dark. I think that will work well with the GT Silver on the GTS.

Early days of ownership so not fully jelled with the car yet. Very different to the GT4 though.

That looks great. The silver suits the Carmine red well. However, I think I need to go darker with GT Silver. I’d love to see a pic of a GTS with Platinum wheels. I suspect it’s unlikely that many owners have done that though.
