Default Wife's car arrives

Finally located a turbo cab with a tip for my wife worth buying. Really nice unmolested condition with 31,800 miles. Updated JVC Nav/audio and amp done very tastefully. She may embarrass me if I race her off the line with my supercharged 928

I have had a 993 Polar Silver, but this one is Artic Silver I believe. Will be checking the paint code.

I am up in the air about the wheels. Obviously came with the car. What is the consensus?
A Quick Poll:
Keep them, lose them

Thx

To each his own I guess but those 997 wheels are damn ugly, someone at Porsche messed up really bad.

Car looks great, enjoy it!

Opinions. I have the 997 wheels and I think they enhance the look.
