Agreed. One hell of a car. Price is very comparable to the M4 with minor options. Now let's hope they build a GT4 RS.

Good chance I may get my allocation for a September delivery soon.

Congratulations!
If you get one, I would tag it as "keeper".
I know I would.
We can rarely call a car a good investment but this one should bend that rule.

Guards red for me please.
Agate will look great too.
Coin flip.

Local dealers by me are already 6 deposits deep. With the 918 owners getting first dibs and more positive reviews coming out on this car, it will cause this to be incredibly hard to get. I wanted one but I'm afraid I'm already too late.

Blasphemy! Getting a Porsche in red is like getting a Ferrari in silver. It's just not right, man!

Color choices suck on the GT4, unfortunately, and PTS isn't going to be offered. Lava Orange would have been great.

No way. Guards red is as old as me lol.
GT Silver is a PTV I believe.
My absolute favorite P color.
Paying nearly 3K US is absurd though.

Agate is great for showing lines in my opinion.
Hell, it looks good in any color.

GT Silver is "only" $1,870 more than Rhodium, so it's been tempting to tick that checkbox.

^ you're right when you look at it that way.
GT Silver is just classy to me. In the sun it is so bright it can blind you.
Rhodium is nice with the blue hue. Not my pick for a GT4.
I would keep a fairly tight leash on your status.

Looked it up.
Guards red introduced mid 80's.
I'm much older than...
But I'm young at heart!

Ask if you can get two.
I'd be interested in the answer.

He'd probably laugh me out of my one allocation.
