Default Joined the Porsche family again

Been away for 5 years and picked up an 05 S with 23K miles. Loaded except for the Aero kit. Picked it up from Porsche of Colorado Springs and will be driving it back to Alabama after a couple of weeks here on business. They have a GT2RS waiting to be delivered. Simply awesome.

as they say on Barrett Jackson, well bought. I go hot and cold on the lobsters...some days I like them (usually on car washing days), other days I'd like to upgrade.

As the lobsters get older and more rare, I like them even more.

I have considered switching for a couple of years, however, I'm keeping them
on for now.

The **** amongst us love the Lobster Forks.
Nice and easy to keep the wheels spotless.

Agreed. I've definitely warmed to them over the years I've had my car.
I was tempted last year to switch to the new Fuchs Racing Wheels, but their constant delays have given me time to fall in love again.
