I think you posted them before.  The Gemballa kits are brutally fast...the 997 kit is awesome.

Given the rims, vinyls, and mesh at the front I'd normally throw up, but its a 911, so.. :)

Rims were $4000.......EACH


Yes...car was fast.  This is the ONLY car I couldn't take from a standstill and run down.  From a roll?  I could beat it.  But the AWD from a stop is just amazing, and the brakes were stupid, stupid, stupid!!

Overpaid then.  I know of some carbon fibre rims that are a pretty penny.

Everything for a Porsche is over-priced.  Spark Plugs were like $22 a pop IIRC.  His wheels were light and 3 piece tough....

Try owning a Jag and see if thats a cheap car to drive. You would be amazed at the price of parts for one. Just beyond beleif what they can cost.  :)

Same thing wrong with a working lawyer living in a basement room at their parent's house.  ;)

How else do you think a Gemballa kit could be installed?  They aren't cheap.   ;D

$4k/rim is nothing if that's the case.  ;)  Got bills you can't deposit into the bank...it's gotta go somewhere.

That front bumper and mesh looks poorly made, and the rims are a bit "bling" for my liking, but each to their own...  I prefer the unmolested car.

+ 1. That belongs on an Escalade. But no doubt, the performance of this one is extraordinary.  :thumbup:

Stock Porsches are beautiful as is.
