I will second this. My first 991S had sport design wheels and I wasn't sure about them at first. I bought 20" Carrera S wheels with a winter wheel set with the idea of eventually swapping out the summer tires. I never did as the Sport Design wheels really grew on me over time. I had lots of complements on them, too.
Nice car BTW :-)

The 20" sport wheels look really nice, but I ended up changing to a set of the Carrera S III wheels. I have my original set up on eBay. I'd end the sale early and make a good deal for a member of this board. Thx!

Congrats! Super jealous of your Ferrari. The F355 is simply gorgeous and the only Ferrari I'd love to own some day.

If you get one, make sure you get a well sorted one.... Right now, it still seems like it's still a good time to get one (you can find a well sorted one for around $60 - $75k). Six years ago, you could get a nice 308 for around $40k, now they seem to run over $80k. Same thing may happen with the 355s... I wouldn't be surprised to see nice ones go for over $100k in the next five years or so, but who knows? get one if you love it, not for an investment. But maintenance is a pain (engine out every 4-6 years for ~$7-$10k) and you need to stay on top of it.

Thanks! It is my favorite car to drive and the one car that I don't think I'll ever sell. Incredible engine sound and feel with the roof off. I've had it for about 11 years and now have 22k miles on it... have never had any problems with it, even though it sits a lot.

If I lived somewhere without winter, I'd do the 911 as my daily driver and the 355 as a summer car!
