Not that bad to be honest, it's not like you can't get 997 tt wheels on new boxsters these days anyway

Was it just 1 wheel? Maybe he was repairing his other wheel or blown a tire and put that one on as a temp?

It looks pathetic, honestly the oem twists look much better on the 996.

Dubai,
Just wanted your thoughts on changing up from Terracotta interior to Black.
How did the Terracotta in your 997s hold up?
Easily stained?
Why did you decide on Black interior on the Turbo?

Well i must admit the terracotta was nice, but after a while it gets abit boring.

The side of the seats did get stained slightly and i didnt have the car for long for me to notice any long term effects (had it for a yr and abit - 26000 KM)

As for the change to black i was hesitant about it at first specially since it gets hot here in the summer and its always sunny so if ur parked out in the sun its like ur sitting on fire when u get back in the car. However i didnt have much of a choice when i got the car as i wanted a TT ASAP and that was the only thing i could squeeze out of the dealership that i could get there and then after pulling some strings. but now i kind of grew into it and prefer the black over the terracota, but deviated stitching is what really makes the dark interior shine.
