I have been flirting with a Lava Orange GTS for a few weeks at a local dealer... traded my base saphire blue metallic...for this beast....?....wow..so different in every way!

Wow looks amazing; now you have to change your picture. How long did you have your Base 718?

I had the base about 5 months..just got the GTS 2hrs ago ??
Just got home from dealer..The GTS is different in every way..!

Very nice!

 

[ZuffenHouseRules]

wow....and a manual gearbox! When you have some miles in the GTS, please give us a driver's compare/contrast of your two 718s.

This... extremely unhelpful! There are two near me and the temptation is increasing everyday!

I know the feeling...I test drove the GTS I bought today about 3 weeks ago...couldn't get it off my mind..It has my preferred options exactly.
Still cant believe it...just went out to garage to see again??....what do you have now, and what are you looking at??
This my old 718, and new GTS together

I see you are succumbing to the dreaded Porsche fever. I can advise you based upon my own Porsche self restraint.........moderation in all things. Hmmmmmmmm, well maybe not.

 

[Robh]

Yes, I admit I do have a problem..my family, neighbors think I've gone completely insane ..."My name is Rob and I have a Porsche problem"...wow I feel better ?

I did the same thing when I was younger...I purchased a new 2003 targa...kept it 6 months and ordered a new 2004 911 TT...I never looked back...just enjoy it!...I now have a 2018 718CS

Is it Lava Orange? It looks like Guards Red in the pic.

 

[ldamelio]

I'm with you guys. Three months into my first Porsche (718CS) and I already have GT3 fever. And a dealer with a reportedly MSRP allocation. Trying to practice self-restraint.

 

[FiscNad]

WOW!!! Congrats!!! I guess you are one of the rarest who can compare both. Would love to read your impressions with respect to difference.

Are you? Why? It sounds like your a member for the PA club.

I seem to be influencing some highly irresponsible behavior...if you need justification just ask!

Didn’t Adam & Eve have a similar problem? Instead of a Red Apple it was a Guards Red GT3 but if all else fails we can blame Robh because he clearly led me (us) astray.

 

[Robh]

I take full responsibility ?

Haven't pulled the trigger - just thinking about it. > Might make more sense to get a few track days under my belt first. Also have to recover from tax day Tuesday!:crying:
