Stunning.....seriously, near perfect in my eyes.

Regarding the wheels, have you driven aggressively yet or do they rub?

Thanks guys.

Yeah, the brakes may be a bit of overkill, but I think they look pretty good. they are the latest Brembo offers for the turboR. Require the 19'' wheels. 380mm (15'') up front and 345mm out back.

No rubbing issues with the current set up. Offset is just about right and ride height fills the wells perfect IMO (although I like 'em low!)

Doc's got first dibs, but iLL you're slotted in a close second!!!!!

Abdullah - do it man. I like this car stock much better than my old modded 996tt. Drove a 997tt and those are nice too. Guess it all comes down to personal preference.

The new gt3's and rs's have my attention as well. I've driven a few of those and man are they nice!

Ops! Sorry Chris. I know you've been looking to buy this car even before she went to RUF. I'll adjust the buyers list.

You guys are killing me. I haven't even driven her yet!!! THis one's a keeper.

Kevin
