it's a tough choice...but if i could get air cooled & direct injection...992?

I do. That blue is too dark. The 911 can be ordered with other blues that are moar better.

Don't worry about direct injection! Just get this:

mine couldn't have a spoiler. i like my cars fresh.

I know what you mean. But in this case you may be able to make an exception as I believe the spoiler came from the factory like the GT3 and GT3 RS get nowadays.
Also notice the half cage in the interior. This car is used on the track. If you took off the rear wing you would probably kill yourself on track due to having a ton of power and not enough downforce.

Haha it happened to me once on accident. It was scary as shit at first. Then I realized that oppo fixed it and I didn't die or even scrape anyone or anything. At that point it became awesome.

The blue is too dark? …. this must be how you see woman.

I'm not going to lie and say its my favorite thing, but it certainly isn't a bad thing.

LOL
My favorite part of that pic is the "Manly sideburns".
That is definitely not how I see that girl. But the Porsche is too dark IMO. This is a nice blue for a sports car:

I'm not sure if the same shade or not, but I do have a soft spot for the Targa's debut color. Its just so pretty.

Totally agree. That is a very nice blue. If I was ordering a 991 new I would have trouble picking between the multiple versions of blue they have that kick ass.
Same thing goes with the 3 Series. You can custom order a lot of different blues that are all nice.
It seems like the German car companies give us the most boring blues as standard options and make us pay more for the best colors. I wouldn't be surprised if the blue in the Targa's debut is actually a custom color that you have to pay more for.

We are talking about Porsche after all, would not doubt it.

Exactly... I actually think they're worse than any other automaker right now whet it comes to option pricing and strategies - including the Italians.

Considering how Jalopnik just ran that article saying they make 23k per car … I'm inclined to agree with you.

I saw that. How insane!!!
They have become MASTERS at the option game.
I think it's eventually going to come back to bite them in the ass. There are long time customers who always trade their 911 in for a new 911. More and more of them will look at alternatives. Not only cheaper alternatives like the C7 but products also under the VAG umbrella. You don't have to tick many boxes with the Audi R8 to get a nice car. I'd rather have a very lightly optioned Audi R8 V10 than a heavily optioned 991 C4S
