Very nice 993 video

I was looking through various car videos and found this very sweet looking/sounding 993. Notice the wheels. They appear to be RS replicas but look like Fuchs from a distance.

Funny you found that video.

It is from Sweden. The guy driving is writing for a known Swedish car magazine and he wants us to hear what it sounds with specially prepared Ferrita end pipes on his 993.

One of the commentaries say: No wonder he parked his old 911 (he used to have an SC) in a ditch, the way he is driving!

There was a Thread a week ago that talked about Fuchs on a 993. Most everyone agreed, including me, that 17" Rota Fox (Fuchs) did not look good on a 993.....well ,after watching this video I have changed my mind. When I get my 993, I will be keeping my Rotas and putting them on! Thanks for the Video!

Edit: Shoot, They won't fit!? Ok, then Supercups with a black center and polished rims.

Rota Fuchs, or any other Fuchs wont fit a 964 or 993 due to different offset. You can put 964/993 wheels on older 911 with spacers but it is not working other way around.
The 993 on the video has kind of black center 18" speedlines.
