Maybe me four. But from the early photos Dan shared, IMHO - they didn't look as good as the Sport Classic Fuchs. The spokes looked too broad or something wasn't quite right with the proportions. Eagerly awaiting the production version and will decide then.

That last photo (above) was just a Photo Shop job--not really how they will look. You'll see soon.

I got some message traffic from them yesterday and they are still go for production with what I predict will be a very nice wheel. I promised not to splash the images of them on sites because they want to do an official news release--soon. Very soon. What I can tell you is that the sizes that they will be producing will be what the 997 crowd will be interested in (both narrow body and wide body customers) and will be sufficient for me to relegate my Carrera Sports to back up wheel duty! I hate to keep dragging everyone out--but it will be rather soon. (I'm guessing within a month). The look is terrific. I think I would opt for the semi-gloss black centers with the polished rims. Again, these are single piece, drop forged, in the tradition of Fuchs of Germany.

Yeah!
Please tell those guys (in the most respectful way possible) to hurry the Fuch up!

I agree. What attracts me to these is the classic aesthetic.
I will want the same configuration (black center with polished rims), but widebody for my C4S cab.
