Wes-

Oof, are those Turbo Twists???

If so, those aren't the ones I like then. I could have sworn these were called turbo twists. They don't have the raised edges on the spokes those do, completely smooth basically.

I had PERFECT picture of a black car with splitter (I blelieve) on my desktop, but had to reformatt the HD last night, so now the only one is on my xanga, and I don't need half the people here, going there. PM me for the address if you want to see what I'm talking about...

Other then that, that car is still awesome looking!

Had I not been so lucky as to stumble upon my azure blue turbo, I would have kept looking for a black one. The N/A I had was black and looked really sharp with tinted windows and black interior. Being blue is my favorite color, its fitting my 951, and now truck, are both dark blue.

I don't care for the kalahari beige or burgundys. The snickers-bar brown and burgundy interiors are not that appealing to me.

I've already had a white one and a gray one, and I enjoy the red one more. Something about going into the garage and turning on the light, and pow! - that red just hits you. I like it, and judging by the attention it gets at gas stations vs the other 944s I had, the red really is an attention getter.

Normally I'm a big fan of black cars. I've owned at least one black car for the last 16 years, and that streak won't be ending soon, if ever. In fact, the only cars I've ever bought in my life that weren't black have been the 944s. The 951 looks good in black, but I really like the 928 in black.

Wes has boxter twists on his car if I am right. The turbo twists are off of a 911. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Thats a car with the Twists I like. That car is very good looking, even though it's maroonish colored. That interior, is awesome. I love the tan/black interiors, they just look so good

If only that car was black, it would be PERFECT.

Do you still have that picture you had in your sig of your car (?) sitting infront of a water scene with the city in the backdrop? The car had black pieces infront of the rear wheels, and made the white look AWESOME. It reminded me of a 930...MMM...

sorry, that was POP, PorscheOPhile, Jeff....he's somewhere around here....

BigNNasty,
Actually, the rims in your link are also off a Boxster (non S). Mine are off a Boxster S. I beleive the Turbo Twists you are looking for are these:

JG, did that include pulling the motor? Did you also have them pull the hatch carpet? It sure looks pretty. Did you ever look up that yellow 951 on Autotrader I told you about?
