My New GTS

First post...thought I would share a pic of our new GTS (picked up last Thursday). Guards Red, Sand Leather, PDK, Nav, XM, Bose and a few other cosmetic changes. Hope you enjoy our first new Porsche (after dreaming for over 20 years)--thanks to all who have posted ahead of us, as it really helped narrow our search!

Beautiful car.

Did you spec it out or the dealer?

I'm asking because I noticed the front chin isn't painted, nor is the rear, but yet the centers where.

Thanks for the compliment! We missed the window to special order, so we had to search for existing inventory. With that being said, this one matched up pretty damn well. While the the sideskirts are painted, I am fine with the lip remaining black (just in case it gets inadvertent driveway rash). The car is a stunner!!

Chins & Rear standard on the GTS, Vintage Tone. Interesting that sides are painted - I never seen or heard of front or rear painted! http://www.porsche.com/usa/models/91...-gts/gallery/#

Having the front and rears painted is another option. Its sorta buried but you can do it.

Beautiful car.. Interesting that it didn't come with black wheels. I've only seen GTS's with black center-mounts or black Classic Sports.. I like the subtle look of your car a lot.
