He's already seen the Viper, but here's a great pic of the magnitude of the Viper Oem tire vs an OEM Turbo S rear.... so many tires at my shop you'd think I actually tracked a car, definitely not.

Side note, went and looked at one of my old Vipers Lambo Houston had acquired and selling. (Also found out I can't fit in an an STO since I already had a deal worked yet I'm too tall). Had it parked next to a GT black series and not many know the AMG GT design team was a collaborative effort with the Viper design team and that's why the GT looks almost identical to the viper.......

Funny how the profit from that one roof can buy a GT car. #justpretendingtobesorry















I saw a black series in the same color a couple days ago. Looks badass.

Ugghhhh...

Please, Please, this is the GT4RS Technical Discussion Thread -- can you guys stop whatever this is?

I don't like doing paperwork on top of deleting 2 days worth of posts

Let's get this thread back on track.

Carbon fiber floor mats are a must. They add alot of unexpected character. The rest just depends on use and comforts desired. Carbon side intakes and mirror triangles too. Make sure to swap the amber blinkers to the clear Euro soec once you receive. Significantly improved look and quality.

The carbon mats are nice to look at, but not practical or durable. They are VERY slippery.

My 918 came with carbon mats, the driver side got worn down within 3 months. Porsche warrantied a new one for me but I since swapped over to carpet and stored the carbon mats in the cardboard box. They only came out when the car is on display, which is almost never as the car get driven, a lot.

My Exclusive also came with a set on top of the carpet mats, the carbon one stayed brand new, never even took them out of the plastic bags. Factory put the carpet ones in the car during factory delivery and they stayed there since.

I have carbon floor mats in my 992 GT3 and I have been very disappointed. They are slippery and always just look dirty. Not worth the money in my opinion.
