Okay, being the sad geek I am I have created a code for what i saw, obviously I have no idea about things I couldn't see but here you go, PNMQIF31. £ 82,229.00 plus OTR charges and anything I couldn't see such as spare tyre etc.

Only anomaly I saw was it had vents painted in body colour and carbon interior trim which you can't spec on the confusorator as one cancels out the other?

The wheel colour and painted vents are 🤮🤮. Personally, I still prefer the Gen 2 design 👍

Really don’t think that front end looks good at all! Very cheap looking.

Not a fan of the wheels but all the other changes look brilliant

I think that would look better with painted sideblades.
Is there an option to paint the plastic on front nose gloss black?

Yep £539 for gloss black front bit that is body coloured on S and base model.

The exterior package consists of the following options:

- Front apron trim painted in Black (high-gloss)
- SportDesign exterior mirrors painted in Black (high-gloss)
- Sideblades painted in Black (high-gloss)
£ 539.00

A real rip off tbh when they offer the painted mirrors are a NO COST option anyway!!!

:shock:

+ 1 disliking the wheels and the matt black front. The price is pretty bad too (with options) when you consider that an S (with last year's GTS power) starts from £25k+ less (with no options)

The gloss will make it look worse IMO
Think it will make the plastic look even more plastic, like most new horrible audis. If you get the car in black you could gloss the front so it gives the impression of being the black paint, it might blend in that scenario - not sure, would need to see in person.

Not to everyone’s taste, cars never are.

For a GTS I’d stick with Matt Black RS spyders and Matt black grill though.

The wheels on this particular car ruin the car for me. The GT design satin platinums would look nice with that gentian paint.

Love the Gentian blue. I do not like the black plastic dimples on the lower part of the front grill and on the diffuser. They must be awful to clean. At least this car does not appear to have them on the sideblades unlike some.

So funny that Gen 2 owners take an instant dislike to Gen3 cars as gen 1 owners did to gen 2. All things get upgraded and improved, and barr the 718 flat 4 hiatus Porsche always seem to get it right.
