No matter how nice the lines of the car, GREEN???? 
Why saddle a car with such a bland color?? 
Green looks good on asparagus, but NOT on cars!

I do agree when you see it in pictures, though this particular green is actually a really nice color when you get to see in in person (particularly in sunlight). Amazing how some colors just don't seem to do themselves justice in pictures and I think this green is one of them.

Why screw with perfection, The Porche 911 is probably the best example of iconic design for a mass produced , commercially available car, anywhere ..............kudos to Porche

The one thing that really keeps me away from a 911 is the fact that's it's not available with a more racing gearbox. Since i don't want to drive a manual in such busy traffic you're stuck in some cases with Tiptronic 5 speed automatic. I expect a GT3 car (my dream P car) to be available not only in manual but in some sort of dual clutch or SMG type gearbox that can suit the raw and ferocious character of a GT3 or GT3 RS.
