no, they are the optional ones. I know this is daft but i don't know a great deal about the 911 and the different bits u can get. Im sure someone can tell us what wheels i have? :)

Performance and capabilities aside, I think the C4S is the best looking 911 ever made. Beauty.

Nice One Mark, she's a beaut :)

Remind me again.....what have been your last 3 cars ? LOL :D ;)

You arent going to drive around with that spoiler up though are you ? (IMHO thats not so cool)

Part of the beauty of the C4S comes from it's widebody stance sans aerokit - so spoiler down please!

Musn't ruin those wonderful lines - it's why Porsche made the spoiler retractable and not permanent because they knew it looked better lowered.

Great choice of car and great choice of colour, silver is smooooooth ;)

The C4S has such an awesome look, spoiler up or down.

Enjoy,
Henry.

i agree about the spoiler but it comes up on its own at high speed! will have to glue it down :D

Those pics where taken at my dads just after I had got back from picking it up, everyone was playing with the switches etc and the spoiler was erected

Mark,

Spoiler comes up at 75mph and back down again at 30mph :)

Leave it in auto mode and you shouldnt have any embaressing 'spoiler up' moments :)

Mark,

It may interest you to hear that Halfords are knocking out 1/18th scale precision die cast Maisto models of the C4S in your colour.

I bought one tonight - they were on special offer for £8.99 too (in the Aylesbury branch of course) - reduced for around £15.99 (think they are surplus x-mas stock)

Try your local Halfords if you want a quality model of your new car :)

It doesnt have the PSE though + it has a sunroof (which yours hasnt :p )

If you cant get hold of one and you want one, let me know and I can get you one and bring it to the Rally School weekend in early March.

Nice car.

Worth a second mention those wheels. Sport Technos as Noony says; they are fabulous and pricey. Of course the standard wheels are lovely but we delivered a Turbo with the Sport Technos on - they are absolutely to die for.

John,

Are they much lighter than standard rims ?

Or is it just a more exclusive & different look that you pay big bucks for ?

?? :confused:

Don't think they're lighter, but they won some design award for being spectacularly 'andsum.
