After months of dreaming (including regular visits to this forum to admire your cars) I've finally taken the leap into Porsche ownership with a 996 Carrera 4 Coupe (Man). I'm loving it (I'm even loving cleaning it!).
5 yrs old, full Porsche service history and only 30,000mls. It's in superb condition. Only immediate plans are to put a non-dating plate on it and replace the wheel centres with coloured crests. Hope you like it.
Photos below (hope they work - if they don't I'd appreciate some advice!).

Very nice indeed - GT3 wheels are lovely - I have been contemplating the coloured centres as well.

Yup, those are my favourite wheels on a 996. Great car Croc. You'll probably find they need to be refurbed more often than non split rims though, and cost more for the priviledge
If you guys find coloured wheel centres going cheap anywhere, let me know. Some of mine will nead replacing at some point. Ta.
