    I am sorry to let you know that that is not an aerokit for sale. I called them and asked about it earlier and they said they don't sell that aerokit by itself, they sell it by car, and it cost aweful lot.. around 300000US

    No way...300k? Impossible...Gemballa have always sold their body kits without the engine mods...Would be total economic madness not to sell a 15k kit to willing buyers...

    I've done my Cayenne turbo in Gemballa stuff - did lower kit, 22" wheels and tricked up exhaust. Apart from the wheels the most commented thing about the car is the sweet sound of the exhaust!

    Re: Gemballa 997 Design Studies

    No defnitely not! Only about $15k USD for mine - my partner has done his 997 with Gemballa wheels, lowering kit and short shift gear stick, he is thinking about doing something with the airbox - to change the sound of the exhaust and give it a bit more grunt????.

    He's got other plates just with 2 letters - but we are just giving the car a bit of time around town being annonymous before the special plates go on (I'm assuming you are referring to the number plates on front of car)?

    yup... front plates.

    no plates are better if you can get away with it.

    nice cars nonetheless

    Re: Gemballa 997 Design Studies

    Nice, until it blows it up and they don't back their product leaving you helpless. After hear the story of the blown-up Turbo, I will never give Gemballa credit for anything and wouldn't consider any of their mods.

    I'd much rather give Ruf my tuning dollars. Beautiful product and a nice couple.

    Ya i think we can rely more on ruf since they do have a 2yr warranty on their 997 supercharger. But still no aerokits for the 997 ?!
