My 2008 Carrera S Has Arrived

Here are a few pictures of it, and they really do not do it it justice, however I did not spend enough time taking the pictures either. It is more than I expected. I took it to Sedona Sunday, and it made for a very fun day.











Getting 305 rear tires as part of the XRR wheel option is something the salespeople should make us more aware of, as that is nice to have, especially on a non wide body car.

My 2008 Carrera S Has Arrived

Congratulations on your beautiful car. Regarding the Carrara Sport wheel, did you have to pay more than the listed $835.00 for the XRR option to get the 305's. I ask because I also just got my '08 C2S, and paid $890 for the Turbo wheels. I also thought I was going to get 305's, but 295's are on the car. I just thought that was the way it was supposed to be, until I saw your post. Your thoughts, please.

I did not have to pay anything other than the $835 adder for the XRR wheels and I learned later that those wheels come with the 305s regardless if the car is a wide body or not, which I think was a nice bonus.

I had seen a couple of cars at my dealer recently with XRRs & 305s, and asked the question here, and sure enough, mine came with 305s.
