Sharkwerks came out with some new t shirts. Got the long sleeve a couple years ago when they launched and ordered the short sleeve when they announced them. Great company that also has great quality apparel is hard to find.

Even after 5 years, I'm still obsessed with this car. I will contemplate newer Porsche's, only due to the "perfect" factor that comes with an obsessive person (not always in a good way) like me owning a new car from day one (Full PPF, ceramic etc.). But every time I walk past this car in my garage, drive it, or really do anything with it, it's hard for me to think of a better car for me and my situation.

I am in the exact same situation with you regarding an older GT3. My '07 will remain with me as long as I am able to drive it. It is THE best automobile I have ever been fortunate to own or drive.

Bxster - beautiful car! White just looks so good on these cars - very clean look and it's easy to see the wonderful lines the 997.1 GT3 has.

I’m so conflicted. I have a set of beautiful OEM wheels for my white 997.1, which are factory black with silver lips. To paint black or not? I don’t want to ruin these beautiful wheels but I wonder how it would look with the silver lip. Anyone have pics of a white car with black wheels/silver lip?

I don't know fi those are factory painted or not but I really like it when Porsche paints the wheels to look like petals.
