Looks great!! is that with the wing up? Haven't seen any really hot 997T wings, but that one really looks good.

IMO on the 996T nothing compares to the Strosek wing

It's a beautiful car with lots of rare parts. And I am fortunate enough to be able to see it every couple weeks.

I thought Bobby was in a GT2 now - did he transfer the lid from his TT or did he sell the TT to someone your area?

What is the weight savings on the wing (without the hydraulics)?

The car looks awsome by the way and those wheels are sweet.

Cheers.

It was about $7500 unpainted with the wing. The actual wing is fixed, and PIWIS shut off the automated deployment feature. I ended up switching the console switch to a GT3, so I wouldn't have a dead button.

Never measured the weight, but the hydraulics were about 12 lbs.

I remember seeing the car when it was at Ruf (now RAC) and Mark was so proud of the wheels since it was the first set with that color. Was the lid/wing added there are when you got the car home?
