Very cool Lemming! I selfishly wish this fun vehicle buying spree took place when you were still in Boston

Thanks, brother.

I wish that too. Life throws curveballs. I’m trying to learn how to be a curveball hitter.

I have some other most excellent pictures of a red Turbo S and a Gentian Blue (maybe?) 911 GT3 Touring (2022 model).

All I can say is —the person who ordered the GT3T ordered a gorgeous car. No whale tail, 6 speed manual. The wheels look amazing and it’s going to always be worth the money.

Yeah. Whatever these wheels are — just wow.

Yeah - those wheels look really slick.

Glad I am not the one cleaning them though - LOL

Wow. Love that color, too. At any rate, congrats on your new acquisition!

Yeah, that is a beauty. You can never go totally wrong with silver. Classic color.

I used to detest the Titanium silver that came on E46's back in the day. I always thought it looked to milky to my eyes, but I've softened in my old age and even that color is okay by me when I see them on the streets.

But I don't see any of that milkiness in this Porsche silver. Looks like a true medium silver.

Those what looks like Anthracite anodized wheels also are a nice complement to the silver.

Solid call.

Those appear to be this year's standard GT3 wheels. Damned nice. Much nicer than they look on the configurator.

I still don't understand why people want a GT3 without the wing, though.

If that is Shark Blue, JST is going to be very happy with his Boxster.

Ha ha ha.

Fair point, Nick. I love the wing too. But the fact that they make a GT3 Touring speaks to me.
