Great car, but those wheels kill it. Surely they could come up with some sort of Fuchs looking wheel.

Man, that's gorgeous. I love that car. Eric, what's your take on this "lightweight" 996?

I couldn't agree more - those wheels have got to go

Wait a minute, are those not the ceramic brakes? Why wouldn't Porsche put the ceramics on there? I'm just going off the color, the only Porsche ceramics I've ever seen (all online of course) are yellow, but those are red like the Brembos. Anybody?

They would probably be fine on a normal 996 (in something other than red) but this is a car that is trying to cash in original 73 RS and totally derails because of the funky red wheels IMO

Wheels look fine to me, and that is a rockin' good car. I haven't seen one out and about yet, are they available?

I don't understand why they didn't use the turbo front end like they have on the GT-3RS race cars??!!

There is a very interesting discussion of ceramic brakes over on Rennlist. It seems that maybe the PCCB aren't all they're cracked up to be.
