I think he wants to know dealer cost, not price. I doubt anyone would disclose that, but you never know.

I inquired about trading in my 19 Carrera classics with wheel enhancment and was told 1000.00 trade-in. Mine are brand new with 1650 miles on the clock and no scrathces, dings, etc.

I am in love with the GT3 OEM wheels! But, the price quoted was enough for me to get the HRE's! After lovingly washing, wheel waxing and detailing my car today, I guess they can stay. I do want the colored crests!

I agree. Call Suncoast or Sunset Porsche. They sell at dealer cost plus about 15%. So, you can do the match, and have a rough idea of true dealer cost. Or call you your local dealer, get a price, and then cut it in 1/2, since they mark-up 100%.

Sunset Imports in Beaverton Oregon sells parts for cost plus 15%. You should be able to figure out dealer cost from there.

DRJMK,

I'm looking for 19" Carrera Classics for my gently used 2008 911 with 2500 miles on it. I have the 19" Carrera S wheels and I was thinking of calling Wheel Enhancement, too. Any interest in my Carrera S wheels? I live in NC.

FWIW-
Wheels are considered an accessory and do not have the mark-up that hard parts do according to what my parts guy tells me.
