my new ride
As promised, here are some pictures of my new ride. Its my first p car, and I am super happy with it. I wish it had the fuchs but at least the wheels are hollow spoke turbo twists. plus I got a set of 16" Carrera wheels complete with Pirelli Winter 190. I get lots of looks and comments about the baby seat...you'd think I had 3 heads.

Very nice. I love them wheels too. Those would be my second choice after Fuchs. How's the interior? What's the mileage? Most importantly, did you get a PPI?

Interior is great, headliner sags a bit on the sunroof. Milage is 136K with a top end re-build at 85K PPI checked great, no surprises, this is a well loved and maintained car, need to replace rotors all around and tires needed to be replaced. Got new rubber on day one. I am going to order rotors from our host next week and tackle the brakes myself...That's the plan. I also have all the service records, about 2" thick

starlifter1, its a Graco comfort baby seat, wheels are hollow spoke porsche turbo twists, and the tires are Falken. Nice and sticky. Post a picture of your ride.

Great looking ride. You say you got a set of 'Carrera wheels'. Are they Fuchs?
No comment on the baby seat.  ianc

ianc, the Carrera wheels are not Fuchs, they are off a 1990 911. I am sure they will be good winter tires, although it doesn't really snow here, which is good.
