The Techart wheels would not have been my first choice, but they are growing on me very quickly and I think I will keep them. If I was starting from the ground up I would put some HRE's on the car.

Cosmetically I don't think the GT3RS wing is a good looking, it is more of a track oriented look, don't get me wrong I like the look of that wing and if I had my choice I would have gotten a GT3. But everyone has their own style which is why I love it when people customize the look of their cars.

The good things is that I have a Boxster that I use as dedicated track car so performance was not as high of a priority when I got this car. When DD you are not going to be able to tell much difference, if at all, between the 997 and 997S, so I am cool with having 30 less hp and some smaller brakes in exchange for better looks. Plus with the money I saved I can put that back into the performance upgrades that I want
