On point here Jason, the car looks fantastic and I dig that rear wing, if you remove it and don't want it I will have first dibs please. Black wheels would look good on this car but not those wheels, imo these wheels look the best the way they left the BBS factory. Some subtle black touches would look nice if you decide to go this way and congrats on the purchase it really does look great.

Might've been just before my time though I turn the big Five O this year (see what I did there?). You sound like you where more dedicated than me. I used to sign off my Generals shifts with the standard, "VKR, 210, please show me off shift at Station, Goodnight". Though in my head I was saying, "VKR, 210, thank fuck that shits over, you can pass all the shit jobs looking after societies spoons to someone else for 16 hours till I'm back to ride the Bull tomorrow". I'm still Jaded nearly 10 years after hanging up my uniform spurs as it were..........TJF. I sound grumpy even to me😑😀. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was "VKC, Russell Street 211 - show me code 6, please don't call me again" I nearly got TJF-911 as a plate - but was frightened it may trigger me.

spiller Posted 29January, 2021 Report Share Posted 29January, 2021 Awesome pick up. Speed Yellow along with guards red is the colour to have on the 996 as far as I’m concerned. Beautiful. Nikos and Jason E 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid $400 or so for the yellow Autoart 996.1 GT3 (ssshh, don;t tell my wife.......). The Autoart yellow is pretty close to actual speed yellow too....

LeeM Posted 2February, 2021 Report Share Posted 2February, 2021 What were you saying about black rims? 😁 This looks rather good DT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakroo Posted 2February, 2021 Report Share Posted 2February, 2021 Sorry but that looks crap Lee. I've had a yellow Ducati sports bike and a yellow Ducati super bike both with silver/light grey wheels as standard....look awesome. My yellow Evo has silver/light grey wheels as standard and this too looks awesome. Matt black tyre, silver outer rim and gloss black spokes - yawn.

LeeM Posted 3February, 2021 Report Share Posted 3February, 2021 Just saw this colour rim onsite that could be a consideration Jason Edit: Ugh!
