Were those white wheels painted originally at the Porsche factory, or were they done at the dealer afterward?

By the way, the combination of the white body and the white wheels looks so cool.

Thanks! Yes these were factory painted. I like the white on white with black interior. I have to admit that this is not the car I thought I'd buy. In fact, I was at the dealer 10-12 times and walked right by this car, which was in the showroom. The dealer added most of the options that I didn't think I'd need but have grown fond of most.
I have not seen another white 991 with white sport technos yet.

REALLY nice car with PERFECT specs. If I were to order a C4, I would get EXACTLY this spec on your car.

Thanks! I can't take credit for choosing the specs. A very knowledge sales guy at the dealer specd the car. I bought it from dealer inventory and thought I knew what I wanted BUT really didn't know at all until I owned the car for awhile.

Honestly if I ever order a C4S it would be a lot like this car but with X51 and leather and Burmeister. A real budget buster maybe the sport design front and mirrors.

Nice Car.
Hey, your lucky you have the standard steering wheel and not the multifunction one.
Now you can easily switch it out for the proper paddle shift sports design steering wheel at a reasonable price.
Enjoy

Funny you mention that. I just got a price around $1k to have dealer switch steering wheel to Sport design wheel. Do you think it is a way better wheel because of paddle shifting? I think it looks better.

I have toyed around with the idea of doing that, too...

Not yet a big deal enough to want to do it yet though. Reading these threads has led to me spending a lot of $$$ lol!

Yeah my garage shelf has hundreds of $ towels and brushes and bottles of various concoctions. My wife thinks I'm running a detailing business!
