Ok, nice. Wonder why they sell the Cast wheel NT03 under their Race models though?

Love the acronym they use for their casting process: M.A.T. = "Most Advanced Technology" lol.

Still, I like them. Just a pity that they don't seem to make many options for our 5x130 hubs.

Hey if it's good enough for the 968, why not a 951?

Me either Rod? I can only see one with a 5x130 fitting too. Shame.

I agree. Given the performance of the 951 it deserves the 'Club Sport' name more than a 968.

I know this a 951 forum but come on! Stock for stock the 968CS is deserving of it's reputation.

Having been in a 968CS I was surprised just how much slower it felt than the 951. No doubt they handle well, but they lack power. I just love the turbo surge. It is addictive.

Okay, I'll re-phrase that;

Given the performance of the 951 it is also deserving of the CS moniker.

The car is actually for my son. And whilst you 'hate the sticker' I couldn't give a rat's ***. Most people reckon it looks great. Who gives a toss whether Porsche made a 944 Clubsport or not. We're not all purists you know. If we were, we'd all have air cooled 911's. So step off your high horse, don't you own a lowly 944 as well?
