This aqua blue is really growing on me

I'm getting close to ordering it. But I think I would put 20in turbo wheels on the car instead. I love the turbo wheel and aqua blue is a very pretty. Not loud but you still have to notice it.

In addition to the emblems today, I painted the rotor hats. I just can't stand the primer looking finish Porsche does on the rotor hats! Looks bad and over time looks worse as brake dust accumulates on the finish. I always paint them with a high temp silver b/c I think it looks much cleaner and lasts....

Here are some b/f and after pics:









Here's a better pic of the rear painted emblems:



I hope you guys don't mind a few more self endulging pics...









Next on the list is to paint the calipers red and install a Fabspeed x-pipe!

Just 1 question. Did you get the all wheel drive because you plan to drive it in the snow? Im not being an ahole but why buy a 4S? The RWD is less, is faster and handles better not to mention it just plain drives better (my opinion). I wonder the same thing when I see C4S cab in Cali. Makes not sense to me. I love the interior espically the red gauges and seatbelts. Best of luck and the sport exhaust must be great. BIG THUMBS UP

Also those HRE which I am normally not a huge fan of have nevr looked better on any car. 21 is perfect to me because 20 looks small and 22 is too big. Great job

Thanks.

Good question on the 4S vs. S. Personally, I think the 4S handles better, not too concerned if in fact the S is a hair faster (honestly, I don't know if it is or not...) and it will prolly not see snow but in the rain the AWD is great. Guess the security of AWD is something we liked after the couple S8s we've had and we've always opted for AWD/4WD whenever it's an option. Guess it begs the question about why the TT is AWD and not offered in 2WD?
