    Artic silver 997 with Sport Design wheels

    Found these over at flat-6 (thanx Amazon), beautiful car!
    So far my fave combo has been Basalt black with 19" Classic wheels, but this looks just as good

    How is that possible?

    Assuming car was ordered by dealership without a buyer. Does that mean sales are slowing?

    I don't know, I just saw that it's listed under 'new inventory'.

    I would assume Brumos is a highly rated dealer. PCNA gives extra cars to dealers whose service is top-notch. That is why the little post card from Porsche that arrives about a week after delivery is so important to some dealers. Your reply of that post card can mean that your dealer will/will not get extra cars.

    I absolutely hate those wheels and changed my original order after seeing them in on a pre delivery car ....Classics are my favorites by miles

    Re: Artic silver 997 with Sport Design wheels

    I like those wheels but I'd say they are a bit "over the top" on that car. The lines and surfaces on the 997 are very smooth so the multi-spoke rims give a exaggerated and nervous impression to it.

    Ferdie have you seen the wheels in the flesh?
    I liked the wheels from pictures and ordered the things. My dealer phoned and asked me to pop in to view them on a pre delivery car (arctic silver) and they just didn't work, they look very similar to AMG wheels although the metal seemed dull and to heavy in design, of course all in my opinion. Just imagine keeping them clean... no thanks
