After spending the last couple of days building an RSN Turbo on the configurator, my SA reached out and informed me that he was wrong when he told me that RSN is still available for 911s. Such a bummer. RIP non-PTS RSN....You've now joined Racing Yellow, Aventurine Green, and Shark Blue....leaving us with a sea of gray scale options

Here are 2 versions that I had designed. I welcome feedback as I may transfer a lot of this to either Chalk, Arctic, or IGM. The other route is to go Gentian, but that would have a pretty different build. My preference is no center locks (was willing to make an exception for a build I really liked) and no PSE (I am going to get the quad diffuser painted HGB)

I absolutely love your Ruby Star Targa! It looks fantastic! I love the white interior and how well it fits! The sport design was also a great touch! I also chose to do silver winter wheels, and I am absolutely in love with how it looks! My Ruby Star Neo T can be the younger brother to your elegant Ruby Star Targa!

I am saddened to hear you had such a long wait and I am elated you have chosen Ruby Star as well, I hope you enjoy it and get many smiles per gallon!

I don't have a problem with any of these colors but this post had me laughing because some owners of these colors have actually referred to them as PTS, both here on RL and at C&C.

Correct (at least according to my SA). I would imagine that they take it off the configurator in the next few weeks.

Those who ordered it as a PTS color before it became part of the normal pilot do get to call it PTS. And anyone lucky to get PTS now could select it and it is also PTS. 😀

The color is still available if you wanted to paint your house/garbage/exterior trim that color.

So damn glad I picked this color. I take delivery this upcoming Friday but these are my photos when the car came off the truck at the dealership. I'll post up the Friday delivery photos then...

Love the Aerokit!

Congrats. I saw both your 911 at the Porsche & Pastries event hosted by Stevens Creek. The RSN is just stunning in the sun!

Not many RSN out there today. Yours may be the only 911 I saw, with two other 718s I believe.

Great show today. Lots of beautiful cars. RSN surely got lots of attention. We enjoyed watching people looking it over and taking pictures with it.

Remember, if you are driving and someone thinks you cut them off or passed them too fast it will be really easy for the cops to find the pink sports car. Just sayin...

I think it would have been awesome had it been a metallic color. Looks a bit too pepto in non-metallic. I'm all for 'different' colors, but there's just something off with this one. Like it doesn't know what it really wants to be.

You need an accent wall for your garage... May I highly recommend this... As it's a heritage color, it will go away soon, so get it while it's hot!
