GT3T Sublime. How do those gorgeous Satin Aluminum wheels pair up with the brightwork around the doors?

MAN, Black does look absolutely incredible! I'm supposed to be the spec/PTS/vinyl guy, but just something about a super simple all black Touring... Such a perfect car. "Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."

I have the same car as GT3T...jet black with satin aluminum - but has red calipers with red belts....so adding a set of 991R rocker stripes in matte (ghost) black with Porsche logo in red. I hope to hit the sweet spot on your statement above.

Yes, they do look much better/aggressive in person. Are you happy with the Satin aluminum wheels? I had my doubts until I got my car. I think they look perfect.

Inside during the collection under showroom lighting the satin Aluminum are a brighter kind of white/silver. Brighter than the trim around the windows. I love the wheels because they really pop and wasn’t looking for a perfect match to the Aluminium trim. In outside lighting I can imagine there will be times when they match the aluminum trim better. I can’t really comment just yet on that because it was dark when I arrived home. Will try get some outside shots this weekend. Standard silver wheels could be a better match to the aluminum trim if that’s important to you. I can imagine there are times when platinum wheels will match the trim better depending on lighting and reflections. But personally I didn’t want to miss out the gorgeous satin aluminum wheels.

I made my spec choices because of the look that I prefer and that’s a look that doesn’t have to tie everything together in my mind (lights, trim and wheels).

At the end of the day when we are given all these options it was driving my crazy making the choices and then changing things. In reality the car will look awesome with any of the options or any combination of the options selected.

Really happy! They look fabulous. I knew I’d made the right choice for me when I saw the pics of your car on delivery.

Thanks! I still could be tempted in the future by a “Porsche” script down the side in a Matt silver. But for now I’m very happy with the look.

You’ve done lots of great work with the mock-ups. Fabulous service you provide to help us envisioning the look.

Looks good! Part of me wishes that I had ordered the black and silver combo. Looks really sharp.

Never ever a fan of yellow seatbelts... until now. Just the right splash of yellow on the interior. Perfectly executed on black on black with the Satin Aluminum wheels and PCCBs.

Exactly. Sometimes too many options and choices ends up with a build that just doesn't sit right. Whilst your build has a few extras its still makes a great simple statement. All black inside and out with some alu brightness and few yellow ascents. I think the build compliments the "touring ethos"" (if there is one) perfectly.

Was just talking to Chris88 (White GT3T) and we both agree the black looks great. Congrats! I can’t wait until my black/chrome arrives. It will be subtlely different as it is A1 black, standard wheels and brakes, and can only hope it looks as good as yours.
