Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Personally I'd go for the silver option - car is such a great colour you don't want people looking at a set of blingy wheels!
Not gun metal, not silver but what ever is half way between the two :thumb:
I say factory colour for factory wheels, so good ole silver, then experiment with golds and things on the BBS. :thumb: Looks stunning in the sun. 8)
I agree, I had the same colour 996 in the past and for sure the pen silver are the best colour with dark blue, my personal opinion
:judge: Thanks all @ marky911 that was before it had the respray Silver it is then :thumb:
I had my turbo wheels redone in GT silver as standard on the turbo S. Nice subtle difference, not quite so bright.
Lapis blue .. sigh .. love that colour ! Standard silver imho . Mind you .. when the Cayman was launched .. yup many years ago the promo car was lapis blue with colour coded wheels ( lapis blue ) and a thin silver pin strip around the edge .. Granted they were a different wheel type of wheel and a different car for that matter but dear god it looked good .
HSC - Same colour before the respray though, so quit your jibba jabba. :mrt: I knew I'd find a way to use that Mr T emoji one day. :grin: Good point Demort. I'm a sucker for colour coded wheels. Speed yellow or Maritime blue 968CS on body colour Cup1's please. :thumbs:
Mine are currently the GT silver, it's great for NOT cleaning brake dust off :grin: Now where is that Murdoch emoji... :coat: :grin:
I used to do wheel refurbs when at the OPC .. the colour coded ones i always loved .. most people dont like them and some of the colours people chose didnt suit the car at all .. but i just painted them .. For me , the little differences like this make a car stand out .. its rare .. its unusal and its not to everyones taiste .. but i like to be different and i like customers that are too Nothing wrong with standard though . We all like what we like !
Demort, you see my ABS pump issue thread :sad:
Nudge me tomorrow please .. i missed it and im off for dinner now .. very hungry !
Mate you know what I a going to say , anything but ordinary ooops stock :grin: :grin: did like Iains suggestion of that body colour launch model with silver pinstripe, not sure about Weiss on a lapis car although I do think gold alloys are coming back in. Anthersite with a flash of silver on the face was what I had on my midnight gen1.
