Just found this by chance whilst looking for images of the 997 gen2 GT3

Me personally, I find these forked centre-lock rims quite possibly the finest looking of all...Porsche obviously liked them enough using on the GT3 & all three 'RS' variants....what a good idea it was indeed. Shown from a rear quarter shot I think the GT3 looks untouchable, that stance, the way Porsche chose not to make a fuss of the exhausts, just dead centre, no daft chrome, perfect...Yes I'am the biggest fan of this model & I still haven't been in one!
One question to gen2 owners, I noticed the Riviera blue's came with blue accents around the centre console?
if you ordered your car in silver or yellow did they too feature some colour coding interior parts to match?

painted centre console was an Exclusive option .. or your local bodyshop can do it

I'm amazed they managed to find 7 decent ones!

Porsche have historically been terrible at wheel design, except for the 996 GT2.2 & GT3.2 style.

The latter 991 GT3 & RS have been an improvement, but the rest have been, by and large, awful.
