Anyone have a pic of a car with the standard color wheels on the .2 GT3, not the satin aluminums that were standard last time. I can't seem to find a single picture with the standard wheels, .1 or .2, and I'm curious what they actually look like on a real car.

The standard wheels last time on the .1 GT3 were satin platinum, not aluminum. Unless I'm not understanding your question.

I thought the wheel that is standard on the .2 was an option on the .1, no? I'm trying to find a picture with the .2 standard color wheel.

looks to me from the 1.2 gt3 build interface that this time they are offering silver painted rims as standard and the grey/plat finish as a small cost option

hopefully they make the plat finish on the .2 cars more durable this time

I found the same thing on the configurator. Satin Aluminum is standard and Satin Platinum is extra. I am curious if the rims are exactly the same as the 1.1? I can't wait to confirm that the chassis is exactly the same, as well. Need to get cracking on cage.

These were standard wheels on my old 991.1

That wheel is not standard but aluminum finish !

Archimedes

Chasoul, are you sure those are the standard silver painted wheels and not the optional Satin Aluminum?

BTW, do you know if that is Rhodium or GT?

Archimedes

Neither of those are standard on the .2 They're both options. Standard is silver painted. But I've yet to see a picture of them. To me the Satin Aluminum is just too bright and makes the wheels pop too much.

It could be either one actually. Personally I have no seen this exact car in person. Unless one have seen a much higher quality pic of that car and at different angle, its anyone's guess. I was just staring at one car with Aluminum Satin wheel and one car with Silver painted wheel today side by side. Once you walk about 30 feet away under the sun, it starts to become almost indistinguishable.

Here are the close up of each wheels:

Satin Platinium are so nice and fit LEDs headlights perfectly. That is why these fokers made them paid option now and instead give us ****ty shiny rims that are off by a mile.

The aluminum satin wheel looks almost white, which is a very cool look. Fits well with a dark color and the non-black headlights. Trouble is you end up needing PCCB to have any hope of keeping them clean and looking nice. Ugh.

Slightly OT: I'm still trying to figure out the whole headlight issue.. which ones are which.. and which ones look good with what. I think the configurator is wrong but can't figure out how.

-which are the headlights with the 4 dots in the middle?... I think LED have a circle around perimeters... but configurator doesn't show the ones with the 4 dots which I think are the upgraded xenons.

^ I have spent way more time than I care to admit on the various lighting options, including comparing to other 911 models and other generations.

- 4 dots in the middle = Xenon
- ring around the headlight surround = LED

Prior generations and some other 911 models have black versions of each of the above, therefore 4 different light options. Current configurator shows only 3 light options. There isn't a black version of the Xenon currently available.

First pic is LED
Second is Xenon from the catalog
