You didn't know this re: the allocations?
That gulf 918 is official and so is that wanna be bugatti blue. I'd probably opt for black or a slate grayish hue.
Speaking of the 918, I think I mentioned a long time ago that I somehow got on a solicitation list to buy one of them. To be clear, this was a mistake as I am nowhere close to being able to afford something like that - but it was nice to get the little trinkets in the mail. They sent me an invite to drive it accompanied by a factory test driver (was too embarrassed to actually do this), a pen, a fake wheel center cap, a 918 book and a glass standup model. They also offered me the option to purchase a Porsche Exclusive Turbo S to match the 918 - it was a bit amusing, you ordered it by ticking off an option box like you're speccing a leather interior or something.
Anyway, when I was looking for my GT4 allocation I found out that there was another huge fringe benefit to buying a 918. Each owner was also offered the opportunity to buy ANY future Porsche model they wanted - they go right to the top of the list for an allocation. No wonder it was next to impossible to get GT3RS allocations!!
If i could find the capital, it would have been great to buy a 918 and GT3 RS, drive them for a few hundred miles and make a million dollars flipping them
