Picked up mine a month ago.

She's a beauty! Enjoy in good health.

I ordered my GTP with the Silverstone/Black full leather but wondering if Fiona red would be nicer with the grey. I have red now so would prefer to change, and I love the way Silverstone reflects the ambient lighting at night.

Congrats! The blue works well and now I’m really curious to see GTP with the YMB interior 👀

The shade helps disguise the brake dust 😓

Can’t go wrong either way. SS will go great with GTP, haven’t seen any!

Thank you.

Both SS, FR and even IW interior would work great with GTP. I would have preferred FR as my personal preference. Mine was already built so did not have much of a choice. As long as it was not plain black or YMB we are onto a winner!

This is a bad ass color. Hope to see one in-person one day!

Patsfan1997 · 01-16-2023, 06:48 PM

So dealer emailed me today telling me I have week 11. Better late than never, I guess. But in the options list, under the Premium Package, they don't list Head up Display. Is it possible to get that deleted from Premium Package, the same way they delete Sensatec dashboard for full leather options? Also, the code next to Grigio Telesto is ZZG. Did they change the code from P6M? Finally, they forgot the 50 year emblem so I guess they can just swap them out in the shop when it arrives.

It's a stupid system in Montreal. Dealer goes in and puts a placeholder for colour because they can't choose an Individual, then they call Toronto to change it, and that added (in my case) 4 weeks to the build week (was originally week 7). Very frustrating.

I had ZZG next to Grigio Telesto Pearl on the original invoice. The final one shows P6M. Not an issue. My dealer also forgot the 50th badges. Had my detailer do it during my PPF install.

I'm seriously considering this combo (extended leather, not full). Having never seen GTP in person, do you think it would go?

Saw a BG / YAS car at the dealer and thought it looked great.

FISH22 · 02-12-2023, 02:10 PM

Surprisingly, I feel Yas goes well with quite a few colors. I have it on my frozen white (full), and that seems to be the safer more modest route utilizing Yas. But I think the darker colors, mostly grays and blacks, wear it the best.

geko29 · 02-12-2023, 02:38 PM

I haven't seen Yaz with Brooklyn Gray, but I imagine it looks great because the light blue picks up the blue tint in BG. GTP is much darker, and I'm not sure if it would mesh as well. Fjord, on the other hand, would be a very nice contrast, especially if you stuck with the stock blue calipers.

Scrubs up well.

Ditto! I ordered mine strictly based on pictures on this site. As of now, I'm not aware of anyone else in Montreal with GTP. Folks here love BG though, which on an overcast day, looks a bit like GTP.

You can have them painted the exact orange to match your seats. I saw a fashion grey M3 with calipers painted the exact colour of the body. Looks like it came like that from the factory.
