No not you Russ

The black rims look great on this car.

 

 

Same car i believe, but not with black rims.

 

I am a huge fan of black rims on blue cars (see my avatar), but i am going to have to disagree with you on this one, i don't think it goes well at all with this specific shade of blue.

Edit: I am now realizing why i don't like it - it is just too many colors contrasting with the paint - the black rim, polished lip and the crest. I think Russ has it spot on with the tech arts.

 

Agreed, not to fond of the black wheels on this color, dont know why, silver is MUCh cleaner

Thanks for sharing though Connor !!

 

Cant believe Russ hasnt commented what a loser

 

I like the look of both but I prefer the non black wheels on this particular color.

 

The kids he was hiding from have found him and have tied him up and are using him as a target for arrow practice.

 

i like the black wheels looks track ready...

 

If you lose the lip and keep the wheels all black that car is wicked lookin

IMO the silver ones look nicer with this color

 

The color of the car(Azzuro Blue?) is very striking and distinctive. Also high visibility. The black wheels, however, detract from its appearance. Polished or silver coated is the only way to go, in my opinion. I find black wheels to be almost always unattractive. The 997 has no brightwork, except the exhaust tips, and needs something to balance out the look.

 

Agree with this.

Russ' is spot on though.

 

Mexico Blue. Read the title

 

The car appears to be the same color, at least on my computer screen, as the limited edition PCA club coupe, which is painted Azzuro california blue. There are a number of posts & pictures of this model on the rennlist 997 forum. That color is apparently similar to one used around 50 years ago for Porsches that were entered in the Carrera Panamerica in Mexico.
