Just picked up this 996 C4S Cabriolet, 76k miles FDSH at the same dealer, 1 lady doctor owner, absolutely standard from new & well cared for, looking forward to some serious top down fun and road trips

Car looks ace! Congrats.

Those wheels don't look right to me. The offset on the back looks like they are for the narrow body cars.

Have a look at the rear wheel on this, Looks like it sits way further out in the arch to me?

I'll take a closer look when I get home later. They are the wheels spec'd from new.
The options list shows this....

416 18" 996 GT mk2 wheels, GT2 8.5+12", GT3 8.5+11", 4S/Turbo 8+11"

I'm liking the GT3 wheel thing. Spacers ordered, will fit at the weekend. Photos to follow.

I'd actually just given it a good clean, spoiler is normally down, i'm quite particular about it.

Lovely car! Just out of interest, was this a private sale or trade sale?
It was trade.

Maybe it's just me but the steering and turn in feel a little lighter and sharper.

Thanks for the advice chaps
