That blue is gorgeous and the yellow calipers look great!
Good to hear your dad is fighting! Hope he stays strong and you both have an absolute riot picking it up! All the best to you both

Was sent more pics today. Just now. Of course, I’ll have to post pics when I pick her up. But how can I not share my excitement?

Thanks brother. Me too. Super excited. And this blue is just wow.
Love how the interior is accented with the same color. This is one hell of a beautiful car. Friday can’t come soon enough.

Needs to be driven as much as possible. Hate seeing amazing cars stuck in the garage.

Please be careful when driving her. I've been fortunate enough to have owned two. A 911 drives different than other cars. More weight in the rear. I spun out a few times in my 997 Carrera S,never in my 997 Turbo(the 4 wheel drive made me feel like a real driver!). Ask Dr.Tom! |

Stunning. Looking forward to pictures in the sunshine, it will be spectacular. Really like the color accents in the cabin.

That is the best looking hot wheels car I’ve seen. Should definitely turn some heads if that was what you were going for. What a beastly blue car! I read the Targa GTS does 0 to 60 in 3.9 secs with that amazing PDK. That’s crazy fast. Enjoy, you deserve it!

Geeze ... look what happens when I don’t pay close attention for a couple of days
Congratulations Seth, I’m genuinely thrilled for you. It sounds like you have a very special father/son relationship and I bet he’s more excited than you are, if that’s even possible |

Congrats, Seth! Killer spec! I have a soft spot for the Targa ... especially the GTS. It's great fun to spec your own car and go through the process ... I did the same with my GT4 3 years ago and loved it. Enjoy the big delivery day with your dad!

I was just wondering when it will arrive!!
Can't wait to see the pics and enjoy the time with your dad picking it up!! Mine got a good bath on Saturday! Also, I hope it's not too late, I'd advise against coating. Ceramic type coating. I will never ever do that to any of my cars again. I hate it. Wish I had done my research. The bra thing... We actually apply paint protection films to customers, but I don't have it on mine lolol. Good luck, Seth! I know you will love it!

Just read your other comment. Coating on top of full ppf. That might work. When and if you remove the film, with it goes the coating.
