Only wheels I like better are the 19" Carrera Sport's.

Those are 18" wheels. Try installing 15mm spacers to the back and it'll change the stance and look of the car.

Left over 996.2 engines were installed in the 05 and early 2006 - 3.4L.

My advice; stay away from tiptronic and look for the S and the 3.8L which was the new engine for the 997.
Alternatively; look for 996 and 997 Turbo which has the Mezger engine and no IMS issue nor cylinder scoring problems
