Oh blimey! What have I started????

Yes, although again very subtle.

That’s why we need the badge though.
Otherwise Joe Public might think we had only bought the S model.

I’d be happy to order a gts with no badging and the S grill……
But I want the interior, engine, suspension tune and rear spoiler……

Or just a GTSS badge. Although putting “SS” on a german car may not play well in parts of Europe.

I've decided on sticking with the de-badge, I think it looks better. The black badge might work on the blue, but I think it'll still stand out too much on papaya.

I also don't care if other people don't know exactly what car I'm driving, it's not their car! Removing the badge is personal preference at the end of the day, I'm really not trying to hide what car it is.
