    needs a spoiler now cause the front looks too heavy or overwhelming.. would be sick with a spoiler.. maybe he's deciding which one to get.

    Looks a little strange to me - like it has a chin or a white beard Yes, I know that's anthropomorphic but a 911 to me is more than just a car. It has personality

    i actually really like it with the GT3 front and no rear spoiler. in stead of the painted cup lip I d put the unpainted regular one..

    I wouldn't have it, but I also think it's interesting. Not a fan of the Turbo wheels either. In the end, though, interesting.

    The combination of the red sandstone church facade and the drooping willow(?) tree branches (third photograph) must be quite unusual.

    I don't live in Stuttgart, but some time ago the streets behind the church used to be good for free parking when visiting the city.

    Take a look at the this one on Piston heads....

    White Cab with GT3 front... This has the black lip + black wheels and looks fantastic I think

    Agree that it would look more balanced with a black lip, like this:

    Strange, the white cab looks great, whereas the targa looks like it's trying too hard IMHO. I think the lip and the Turbo alloys don't look right.

    I really wanted a set of turbo alloys, but the more I see them on non tubo's I get less and less sure....
