I see you live in the Bay Area and would be happy to show you my White Touring with Satin Aluminum wheels. Obviously, its a different look with a Black car, but nice to see the wheels in person. I'm completely happy I went with Satin Aluminum wheels and think they'd like awesome on a Black Touring.

Thanks for all the feedback gents! Looks like a 3 to 1 vote for the satin aluminum wheels. This is the way I was leaning so it was good to see these results.

Chris88 - Thanks for the offer! Sending PM.

STG - I went with regular LEDs (not black) over PLDs headlights as they looked lighter on the configurator, hoping to get more contrast as you mentioned.

I also like the 4 led dots when driving. My buddy has a Turbo S w LED and the 4 small lights on each headlight looks fantastic. Do the base lights have this 4 dot look? Will the regular LEDs be enough contrast? Open to anyone who can weigh in.

Thanks again to all who helped and voted!

The base xenons also have 4 LED running lights, and many feel, myself included, that they look better than those on the full LED headlights.

Check them out here...

Sweet. That does it. Thanks Blue!

Sat plat is a bit gen 1. EVERYONE had them. Few blacks as it was gloss only.

I also think the whole point of Touring pack is to have a classy version of the GT3. So silver accents and wheels match that mantra much more.
Blacked out touring looks more like a wingless gt3.

yExactly, which is what some of us are looking for. I went back and forth on a lot of different colors and the trim, and at the end of the day I concluded that I should be more concerned about what I like and want to live with a decade or more than with making my car look like some Porsche of yesteryear. I don't think there's any wrong answer here, as the both look really good, but I concluded that making the car look what I felt was good based on my tastes was far more important than worrying about it looking like a 'classic Porsche'. And not that it matters, but the only people who would even know what that 'classic' look is are dyed in the wool Porschefiles anyway. The average person out there is just going to see chrome.

OP congrats , the standard wheel which I believe is the shiniest closest to chrome and therefore best match to the chrome window trim would be my eyes pleasure . Just a classy outstanding look on a black build . P's wheel color choice/info on this model run kind of sketchy , didn't vote as standard wasn't a choice .

I'd love to see some great pictures of the standard and Satin Aluminum wheels side-by-side, same light, proper exposure and white balance. Every time I see a GT3 on the road or at a dealer, they have black or platinum wheels. Would love to know which wheel matches the standard aluminum Touring trim best. My guess is they both match just fine. After seeing the 911R wheels so many times, it would be hard to pass them up.

This is Stain Aluminum. No brainer.

I really like the look of the black touring with chrome accents. I would lean toward the standard silver rims to match, but any of the non-black colors would work fine.

Chris88

Calling the Touring trim chrome is misleading, as the window trim is not chrome. It's simply a glossy Silver. I'm not even sure the washer nipples, tail pipes, and PORSCHE lettering are even chrome, there simply a shinny Silver. I'm away from my touring for at least another week, so can't verify.
