Your car is perfect as is. The most I would go with your wheels would be to have the center spokes polished but leave the insides black.

Ill say it again your car is absolutely beautiful!

This is one of my all time fave Porsches. The color in this scanned picture does not do it justice.

Since I have a few sets of Fuchs for each car, I'm thinking about a set of color matched centers myself.

Loved the weissach series, I always wanted the 911 and 928 when I was younger.

I don't know if an '87 is considered old...I've had mine since late '86. Maryland considers any cay 25 years old "Historic"!!!! Can't wait to get those plates.

I love the older 911. I've had 911S and 911SC in the past and I love them. Always wanted a '71/'72/'73 911E or 911S but they are very hard to come by now.

I live in a very small town....730 population (in the middle of summer), and some "hero" just moved into town with 2 older 911's. One is a 1971 911R (I think) and the other is an 1973 911T. They are both concourse grade....both cars are completely restored and look like a million dollars.

My little town is named "Oxford, Maryland" and we have an annual parade the last Saturday of April. I have organized a group for a "Porsche Parade" to get into the Oxford Day Parade. I have contacted 9 or so Porsches owners in town who are willing to get into the parade...including an early 914-6 (track car), two 1987 911's, one a Coupe (mine) and the second a "Cab", a 993 C2, the two early 70's 911's mentioned above, a 944 - early 1980's, and a 996 TT track car. It should be fun.....anyone else who wants to be in the parade can let me know and I will make it happpen!!!

Well, it wouldn't be an 911 R if it is a 71, but an E, T or S. Now if he has deep pockets, it could be an ST. Good luck with the parade and take lots of pix!!!
