Damn that car is BEAUTIFUL and does not even look out of place in the Porsche Parking lot today some 20+ years after it was built!

Need to show some more love for the Garnett Red 86.5's. Some of my pics from a recent Concours representing the 928 for the 60th Anniversary.

not on a period correct car.

WAIT, in one pic youve got chrome wheels, the other you have what look like a really cool anodized finish? I like this no chrome wheel finish, care to comment on it?

I'm guessing your referring to the wheels on my car, they have a goldish finish to them.

They are painted.. From what I heard the pigment was discontinued so refinishing them is going to be a challenge.

why i think they look great, at least from the pics.

you can have the paint color matched if you insist. But i agree that color that they show right now is no doubt not the same color as they were when they left the factory 22 years ago. I do like the color now.

The golden tone looks especially good with the exterior color

It's probably not, but can't be to far off. I don't think the car has spent much time out in the sun, it's got about 64k on it now and has no dash cracks in it..
