I've come close to pulling the trigger on Sport Classics a few times. I keep getting stuck on the weight (can't imagine spending that much money on looks and decreasing performance). Beautiful though. Can you say more about the Sport Classics vs Fuchs, or are you calling the Sport Classics "Fuchs"? Thanks.

I might have posted this elsewhere but I love this picture of my car after driving it in the dirt.

I'll stick with Sport Classics. As to the weight you are correct, they are much heavier than the Turbo IIs I used to have. I got them soley because of the look, I have an 85 with Fuchs and I love the wheels. In retrospect, I should have bought Fuchs instead. But at 79 I can't tell the difference.

What’s the mileage on the car. Those superchargers reliable? Does it eventually kill the engine?

New to me as of 2 months ago. 2006 Carrera S w/factory Aerokit
Red accents were added by a previous owner to mimic a GT3. Seem to bring out mixed opinions in people but I kinda like them

2006 Carrera S
