    I've seen the discussion on the Porsche sites, as well as on a June fc thread, but can some Porschephile here confirm that the US model GT3RS (not the GT3) will have a sunroof? That there is no "delete" option?

    Looks like it will be a great car, but the sunroof spoils it for me.

    I think there is a delete option for the regular GT3, not sure about the RS but i don't think its avaliable for the first model year

    There is no delete option for the GT3 and AFAIK.

    I have a 997 GT2 on order and will not proceed if I have to take a sunroof......amongst other things.

    I agree with Keith. AFAIK, all N. American cars will have the p.r. option.

    "I have a 997 GT2 on order and will not proceed if I have to take a sunroof......amongst other things."


    That's a pity - the two 997 series cars that most interest me are the GT3 RS and GT2. The GT2 would be amazing ... if not watered down for the US.

    As per 6speed:

    "i know, my thoughts exactly. i'm holding out for the second model year where i've heard porsche will have sunroof delete as an option, along with the club sport roll cage and possibly a 7-spd DSG. all that remains to be seen of course. you know how rumors are."

    "Option 652
    A must have!!!"

    "I'll bite, what's option 652?"

    "yeah, what's option 652? i don't see it in the ordering guide."

    "Option 652=
    Sunroof DELETE!"

    "^ sunroof delete... i wanted that but my dealership told me it's not available the first year. seems i need to have another conversation with them."


    BUT..............


    "It's not available. Porsche will only bring in 07 911's with a sunroof, no exceptions. For 08 who knows but I would think it's probably not going to change."





    So who knows :confused:
