Agree with those who said that it is way overpriced for what it is. Beautiful though!

250 made, 250 sold. Over priced I think, but 250 people didn't mind.

A friend of mine will be manufacturing similar wheels starting in March 2010. However, unlike these on the Sport Classic, they will be single piece forged, emulating the old style Fuchs windmill wheel. Fuchs USA is the producer.

That is perfect. That dove gray is amazing. What great nods back to some old porsche history. It will be interesting to see if aftermarked guys can copy the look for 1/2 price.

Love it but I think they should have kept it true to its name and drop'd the GT3 engine in it

E4VLL is an unknown quantity at this point
IMHO, you'd have to really want this car, or buy into the LE aspect of it, to buy one. Had Porsche made the performance angle something akin to the GT3, my opinion would have been changed; however, to borrow from the style of the '73 RS and then simply give the standard Carrera the performance kit (available on any 997 C2/C4 s or non-S) seems a little lame.

My dealer offered me one and I considered it until he mentioned the price (over £140,048.00 / $219,777.33 at the current exchange rate) and that almost all the parts will available through Exclusive or Tequipment in time.

I like the idea but the either the performance to price ratio is all wrong, imho.
