Same price? Get the Rubystone! You won't regret it.

That's awesome! White is safe and classy. Isn't the rule 25 years to the build month? Hope you can register it as soon as she lands.

Funny - if I had not gotten my allocation for my 991 RS this is probably the way I would have gone . The new car arrives in a few weeks and if doesn't feel right I'll sell and go down the 964 RS path . Love how small and low key they are even in Maritime or Rubystone .

A few have made there way to Canada (15 years old to import). A local dealer had a Rubystone and a Maritime blue RS. Something to see them side by side. An RS America as well near by.

The Ruby was sold and not sure if they still have the blue one.

Rubystone looks perfect!

For all you guys States-side, buying a 964 RS out of the UK is considerably cheaper than it was twelve months ago thanks to the depreciation of Sterling versus the Dollar.
Factor-in the market coming off the boil a bit, and for a Dollar buyer a 964 RS is about 30% cheaper than it was a year ago.

Congrats!! The theme with these cars are, "Should've never sold" or "Should've bought earlier". Looks great in white.

Very off topic. Interesting to see how the seat belt system has changed over the years.
