Love the spec Roger. Great choice with the Targa as well. Very jealous 😜
Great edit too by the way 👌
Thanks Pete, appreciate your commenting, and approval ! :)
wow, great car purchase and your right with the Targa
Jake Soloman glad you said this
welcome
What a specimen! Absolutely perfect!
Well introduced Roger.... I also love the mix of Miami blue with the black wheel and obviously the black roof.
thanks Stephane
I was glued to this. Man I would to drive it. Can't wait to see you unleash the beast!
thanks Remi great to hear from you
Love everything about the GTS .Thanks for showing us how it done .
thanks for looking in
This is amazing. I am currently drinking coffee from my Tiffany Blue mug and I approve of your color choice. Amazing that you were able to build your car and they welcome you with signs making it an experience.
Red Wine And Blue Mom glad you like miami blue, best wishes :)
Many years ago, 2004 in fact, I bought a new Porsche Cayenne Turbo and it has been an amazing autostrassecruizer, bar none. But I always dreamed of a 911 so my amazing wife bought me one in 2012, a Turbo S black with black interior, red highlights and stitching. I love that car too and now with 15 years on the clock it is time to replace the Cayenne so I will be ordering a 2019 Turbo when available, black on black with red highlights and stitching. This is what auto dreams are made of.
t5grrr dreams indeed, thanks for sharing your story, a 2019 turbo is really something special to look forward to.
Nice car, I drove a GTS once and I had a smile on my face the whole time. Never seen a color like that before. I like it!
Thanks Charles,
a video which is 10 times better than many other car delivery videos I've seen, great job, I feel your passion
Fab video Roger, enjoy you stunning Porsche.
Mark Lawrence thanks for saying, I'm enjoying !
Awesome friend beautiful car I know you will enjoy it.
thanks, i will :)
For me, its just going to remain a dream
transitvandoors you never ever know :)
I spec'ed my 911 Miami Blue 4 GTS for the same reason. This color is stunning in person. It is an amazing combo with the black accents on the GTS. I never get tired looking at it. Enjoy the car!
what a fantastic blue car!
Never owned a Porsche before, but, when the Macan first came out in 2013, I knew I wanted one. Five years on, and I've finally taken the plunge, and ordered a new 'facelifted' Macan S. I'm told I'll get it in October (2018), but it still hasn't been officially revealed yet ! Can't wait till the autumn !
the macan is amazing, I just drove one for a couple of days and didn't want to hand it back, facelift sounds even better.
Super review as usual Roger. Great video
Construction Machines Channel thanks, and good to see you again :)
Beautiful car! Absolutely stunning!
Looks amazing!
thanks, it is pretty good
Brilliant video, captures the excitement of buying your dream car perfectly :)))
Llewelyn Guildford thanks for saying, appreciated :))
Roger, I'm gutted, when I go on the configurator this the very car I spec! Congratulations.
Neill Gowans
you have great taste may I say
Also my most favorite 911 model! You own an awesome car! Enjoy!
thanks Rick
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
A Trimble thanks, your welcome
Beautiful video, congrats on your wonderful purchase! You’ve also gained another subscriber! It’s so refreshing to hear a sophisticated car reviewer. Can’t wait to see some more
thanks for your support :)
I like the fact it was your first new car and what a highly personalized one it is. Love every choice including Miami Blue.
glad to have your approval !
Congratulations Roger, looks gorgeous, hope you enjoy it!
Justin Smith thanks, yes I'm enjoying it :)
Thank you Mr. Bailey, for bringing us along. It's amazing how entertaining your experience is to me. A few weeks ago I bought a 2017 Base 911 CPO. Nick Murray's videos helped me see that I could be content with a 991.2 that doesn't have any special alphanumeric characters following the badge. Because I'm poor (haha) and because I wanted this car to be somewhat practical, I believe it was a good choice. Anyway I'm pretty sure others like myself will get the most from watching your very special experience. Spec-ing a brand new model, and so heavily upgraded, is a fantasy for me and I'm sincerely happy to see you getting to do just that. Thanks again, and Congratulations!
I'm pleased to hear you were entertained, thats great feedback that inspires me to make more videos, your base 911 will be a fantastic car
Beautiful spec, enjoy
Perfect interior for that color!
Very nice car and color😍
nice to hear this thanks
Roger Bailey You're welcome
cant wait to see your full review of this car
hopefully wont be too long
Amazing car! Definitely worth the purchase. Sounds like the most upscale car buying experience I’ve heard of. Love that blue color too. New supporter here. Loved the monologue that went along with showcasing this Porsche
Ashley Rolland thank you, supporting your channel too 👍
Congrats, Sir.
That’s one lovely spec. I’ve wanted a GTS for a year or so. Now, I’m tied between this and the new Bmw 8-Series.
tough choice !
This is a great video, what a spec, you made the perfect chose to put yourself in the center making your own choices. I liked the color combination and I am surprised how good the Graphite Blue & Crayon looked with the Miami Blue. You traped me in your video, keep up the good work...
Thanks ! really appreciate this comment
Wow!!! A bold move, but that is what is so special about specing your own Porsche!! I went for a Guards Red GTS Coupe with extra leather and alcantara, classic spec but I´m in love!!!
head911 your GTS sounds brilliant
this model Targa is probably the best looking 911 that Porsche have produced to date. I particularly like that it is very reminiscent of the Carrera GT when the rear glass is moved out of the way! I personally think that would be an excellent look for a 911. The Targa wouldn't be my own choice (yet, maybe) but you made a great decision. Enjoy the heck out of it!
Trey Quattro thanks for the comments, yes I will enjoy !
Porsche. Mmm, Looks amazing!
Cup Of Spring great to see you here :)
Looks lovely. I have a GTS 991.2 in Carmine Red very few about . There absolutely brilliant
Interesting spec. Nice one, well done!
Shane Isaacs thanks !
Spectacular. Love it
congrats Roger on your new car! Welcome to the Porsche community.
Appreciate your comment, thanks
Miami Blue. My son just picked this when we went to Porsche last time. I like the light interior and the spec. Well done on your dream car.
golf raven thanks for saying, appreciated !
I will probably never be able to own a Porsche so I live through your videos, thank you so much for posting.
jtrekmadone nice comment thank you and I hope one day you get one
Love my 2019 991.2 4 gts! No plans for newer. Perfect blend of tech and analog for me!!!
@@dirkpalmer1067 a great all round Porsche you have there 👍🏼
Congratulations on the interesting spec! I dream of one day being able to spec my own.
viclr33 thanks, one day ?!
Congrats this is a brilliant spec a targa GTS is probably my favorite 911

thank you, you have some great vids there on your channel :)
Nice colour love it
thanks
You have excellent taste. Very close to my own spec!
thanks, appreciate your saying
Took a Miami Blue GTS hard top for a drive last weekend. Loved it. Amazing to drive. Only money would separate me from a 718 Cayman GTS.
Love the Lava Orange too...
loving Lava Orange too, 718 GTS - cant wait to drive one
Roger Bailey would put 911 ahead but 718 GTS is lovely too and great fun
Very interesting and good information my friend!! I loved the blue car!! Thumbs up and full view 👍👍👍👍
hey thanks
You Rock!
Absolutely fantastic my friend, I love the way that Porsche with every new design year on year managed to keep that true 911 iconic look but enhancing the Beauty & performance every time , truly fantastic, the colour of your own new Targa is outstanding, a fantastic video as always, really looking forward to your next video, there you can push the car to enlighten us of its superb performance. Have a great day
daz evers thank you for these comments, really appreciated, have a great day !
Worth it.
Superb video. Thanks for making it. My dream car
thanks for watching,
Great video Roger. Great spec too. That is a seriously cool car. Enjoy!
thank you for saying :)
My favorite colour on a Porsche, Miami Blue looks amazing on a sunny day, and I'd choose leather over cheapo alcantara also, beautiful motor, well done
Love the color of the Porsche tfs
thanks for concurring :)
Wish I had the cash to stroll into a Porsche dealership and ask to buy the 'latest and greatest'! LOL My dream car is a Porsche Boxster, solely based on how cool it looks! ;)
boxster is very cool, great sports car
you have excelled yourself Mr B
I appreciate that Al
Very nice! Mine is also a Miami blue. This color is stunning. Video and pictures can't capture how beautiful it is.
Great video, Roger!!! You do have a Marvelous car channel!!! Very well done!!!! Best wishes! :-)
Adele Celeste thank you for saying, I love your vids ! :)
Might not have the muscle cars. But over there you do have all the super cars!! Very nice video. here to return the favor
thanks, love muscle cars, nice channel you have there
Congrats Roger... Great car and options... My fav is the Miami blue... it stands out really well... a daring but a correct decision in my opnion. Enjoy your ride.
thanks, I was sold on miami blue from the beginning & targa feels every bit as dynamic as the coupe now I've loosened it up !
Miami Blue is a great color. When I'm finally able to afford a 911 of my own, maybe 5 to 8 years down the line, it's one of the colors I'll be considering too. The 911 is my dream car. Hope you enjoy yours tremendously.
Dan Red thanks, yes it's a great experience to have this car, hope you get one someday,
Fantastic!! I'm so happy for you.
thanks for saying :)
Beautiful spec. Congrats 👍
thank you - appreciate your comment
Beautiful car mate, and an excellent colour choice, hopefully one day I'll be off to a Porsche dealer with enough cash in hand too...
This car!! 😍 that color is the bomb!!! Adding to my playlist. Supporting. Liked!!!!
Jessie Lynn Summerville Cain thanks you so much , great to see you on the live stream, :)
Awesome car been waiting to see your GTS since the cab video , can’t wait for your full review as targa would be my choice ! Your a lucky guy Miami blue as well ! Great video !
Mark Doe
thanks for watching & comments, appreciated
Ugh would love together one of those! :D
So cool to see dreams in the making - and then come true. Amazing car, great configuration. (A pretty long time ago in the 90s, I remember watching a Porsche 911 commercial, I think it was for the 993 iteration. It had to do with getting over the "less exciting" prior Porsche 911 colors and adding some punch to the new colors. A technician pulls up the hem of his pants and reveals some funky, bright colored socks. Then, another technician empties his pockets and spills out a rainbow of Skittles candy, in all sort of flavored, bright colors. And these were some of the inspirations for the new, bright-colored options for the 911 of that time. So the commercial went - at least how I remember it ;) )
thanks, I must try and search for that commercial from 90's !

Hey Roger, it has been awhile. Sweet ride, enjoy!
JOE Z hey good to hear from you 👍
Thank you. I try to $upport channels in our community but I did not resolve my computer issue yet. That is why I cannot get as many video as I would like uploaded.
Nice.
Well done, sir. All around . . .
thanks Sam
so happy for you and I don't even know you, LoL 😃. congrats Roger. respect from USA 😃
nice to hear this, thanks
Roger, Porsche Centre Chester should be recruiting you to do their PR! Great video, keep them coming!
Very true Andy !
This is absolute masterclass, pro work.
Nice car. Pretty flowers for your wife. The color is so nice.
great video ! I love the targa its my favourite car, congratulations !
ahren spylo glad to here you like the targa, me too !
Looks superb, like your videos, I have subscribed!
I would love a GT3, but I am ticking the McLaren box first, picking one up next weekend! Will join you on the Porsche highway in a couple of years!
Look forward to your review of the new car 👍
Life_Is_1337 enjoy your McLaren it will be amazing !
Love the way you tell the story Roger, this made me smile. Does the automotive youtube community have another Harry Metcalf to join the ranks? I hope so!
lapamful love your comment - thanks !!
just wow what a great purchase you have made roger
John Flanagan thanks for saying :)
what do think about the new 911 GT2 RS
LOVE IT and LOVE my GTS! Im glad you didn't sell it.. (I remember your Facebook post).. I have the white on red .2 GTS coupe as well. Im considering trading in for a 570 spider with your GTS spec! (Curacao Blue on White (almond) interior).. it's the launch spec 570 spdier w/ the orange calipers... So beautiful. We'll see what happens.... I do LOVE my GTS though!!
Dan S
i remember your white one with that red interior, a great combo, yes I'm glad I kept mine now, these GTS 911's are so good ! 570 may drive even better, keep us posted :)
Targa GTS is the dream here too. I wish I could get this in rear wheel drive though.
WheresTheAnyKey1 I found the rear wheel drive cab i drove needed a bit of driving talent in the wet,
When are we going to see more of your gts. Surely you’ve run it in by now. Love the spec.
Sorry for the delay and thank you for your interest, I'm working on it and hoping to post a video next week
Roger Bailey Ok great. I’m looking to buy a GTS Cab
Loving the Targa and the color. The Targa is such a stylish 911 choice because of that rear clam shell design. Wonderful choice, ready for the video comparison between the balance of 911 vs Cayman!
Thanks, I just sampled a 718 Cayman, it handles better than the 911 !
Have fun with the car! Beige leather looks allways amazing, but never ever wear a new Jeans in the car. The colour from the Jeans can rub off to the seats, esp. in hot summer days when you are sweating.
Rick2010100 very good point about the jeans
Great review RB. I am now in the position that you found yourself pre purchase. I have had multiple performance cars M3's and an Audi RS4. I have never bought a new car but am anxious about pulling the trigger on a new Porsche. Thanks for your review. The Miami blue targa is just plain magnificent. Cheers - Sub.
Thanks - for me buying new felt a lot more special than buying used
Been there, done that. But congrats !
What a beautiful color! Though it does remind me a bit of an Easter egg. Nope....I haven't wondered bc I've been. :D My Father had lovely taste. I love driving and riding motorcycles. Sales people seem to know and come right up to me whether a car or a coat lol. :D
The Lady Borgia I kinda see the easter egg thing going on now you mention it :D
Beautiful car Roger. Great choice!
Man this video makes want to go and take delivery of a brand new car.. unfortunately being lumbered with a failing business means I have to live vicariously through TH-cam... Ah well such is life :) looking forward to more videos, hopefully road trips etc, with this lovely Targa.
stubones hey thanks, it took me a while to make this vid but got there eventually !
It was worth it :) One thing though, I'm not sure the slow mo works, it's very jerky. I'm no video expert, but maybe using a faster fps rate would help.
your right I've been using 30fps but I've since changed to 60fps, see how that goes :)
Roger Bailey that should help :)
beautiful car. new 992 does not offer Miami blue. anyone know why?
Wow!
Lovely car! I like the T though.
yes T is fantastic
I remember when you got £10,000 off a Porsche on a bad day. Discounts of £20k were easily had. They've just got greedy now.
yes, I hear Porsche is the highest level of profit of any manufacturer by percentage, they are good
Supply and demand. Economics 101.
