I like both wheels

The Painted Porsche look nice with the darker top color, maybe more for Fall ?

The HREs look nice next to the glass/plastic reflectors if the lights

One thing I never noticed on the cab was how far the roof seems to sit below the body when down. It almost appears like an air scoop for the engine with how much space there is.

Beautiful car, cute kids

Very nice. I've got the same interior, which is fabulous!

I'm not a huge fan of the shiny HREs, but they do look nice on your car.

Minnesota, huh? How many months a year do you hope to have the car out to play with?

Very sharp combination. Congrats. I think the Agate is one of the most flattering colors for the 991 but I'm a little biased because that's the color I bought...

Yeah, I don't know, I'm just not sold on these wheels for whatever reason. Too similar to so many "mesh" rims maybe. Might put them up for sale and try something else. They'll be in the wheels section soon I think.

I think I can get 7 months depending on when it starts snowing here. Usually around Halloween things turn icy.

Thanks-

It's actually very easy to keep clean. (And I've got little kids!) Wipes right up with mild soap and water. No jeans dye transfer. That might just be a myth because that's all I wear and I've not seen it.

I actually like the HRE rims, and would do even a bit darker. However, I think the black Carerra S rims suit the car better.

I like it Alec. I think we are both used to the dark colored Carrera 20s so the difference is considerable.

I am thinking of having my platinum wheels clear coated in a satin finish. I miss the shine

Wow again. Manual too. Nice. I don't have SPASM but you don't have PSE so there. You've got me on the fancy lug nuts. My nuts are normal. (Ah, that's an odd sentence.)

Peace my doppelgänger brother! I'll stay out of Virginia.
