Very sweet. Love the calipers peeking through the wheels. Love that color.

Regards,

Lookin' good. I need to take some good pics of mine this weekend, while it's nice and clean. This week a family was walking past my car as I was heading out and their 10-year old asked if I'd pop the hood - rare these days, a kid wanting to see the engine...

I like turbo twists better than cups, but cups don't make it look like you've put your wheels on backwards

There are links to pics of all 3 cars in my .sig, even my 944 that desperately needs paint.

NO, NO , NO ! I mean your flesh and bone woman. Just trying to make an observation. You know as a comparator - Cup 1 Vs Cup 2 , your girl your taste! I just dont understand how someone would prefer CUP 2 over CUP1's. Help me understand! Mike-Curious!

Awesome car! Felsengrün metallic is one of my favorites from that time. Not a very common color. And the red calipers look great, too! Are these GTS brakes or painted S4?

Not sure, if I fully understand the Cup discussion. There were different versions of Porsche Cup style wheels, and I'm good at mixing up the names for each. Maybe you'll find some anwers on the Wheel Enhancement website (http://www.wheelenhancement.com/Style.htm).

Either way, if my car had not come with the turbo twists, I think I would have gone with the same style you have.

Thankyou Nicole. Geeze I'm offering info for once . Cup1 wheels were the first generation . Cup 2's of course next. When I was looking for wheels on different websites ,it was a bit of a confusion : Cup 1= turbo 2 yada yada.. Different business's used diff. names! Sometimes a confusion.Turbo twists are sometimes called Cup 2's and then they don't say twists. I was concerned upon ordering. Mike.

Also the brakes are stock ,but rebuilt and painted by your's truly. After the rebuild there was a noticable differance. About half the thrill to decellerate as to accelerate. Mike- I like to brake and show it!. Mike.
