    Kyle- The NF3 21" and 22" wheels make a beautiful car even more beautiful, and meaner looking. Very nice color combination and the red calipers look great with that exterior color.

    Stunning yet not over the top, love the diamond pleat and the red stitch.

    I like the spoke design but not a fan of the allen heads; makes the wheel design look "busy" to me.

    Its a nice new shiny object, but don't forget yours is stunning! :)

    Good observation. It seems odd that a dealer would install after market wheels on a new car?

    Jennifer- Your car is beautiful, as are the wheels on it. Your Aussie husband had a pretty good sense of humor (humour for him) on the price you paid for your forged wheels, but $12-14K for 21" and 22" wheels and tires might be overkill. Or might be a couple of smiles and winks. Still works when Jan pulls that on me.

    She did not kill me when I put these on my car, and my smile is nowhere as effective as yours. Never mind how much they cost.

    I like the titanium, but not as keen on the black windscreen surround with the top up.

    Thanks, guys, for the support! I do love my new wheels and can't beat the price. Plus, we have had a plethora of silver cars in our lives and are finally getting bolder in our choices, adding TdF and now white to the stable. Only one silver one left!

    Oh, and yes, I still hear about my "wheels" from time to time from him with the sense of humour (sic)!

    But he finally got his DD and it screams. Still not a fan of Porsche but he shopped till he found the right one and loves it. 911 Turbo Cab in white/black with all sorts of engine and exhaust mods that give it a whopping 620 hp. It's scary fast. Maybe he'll need new wheels and I'll be ever so supportive! Having to remember how to drive a manual again after 15 years has been a little bumpy...:)

    I mentioned the stickers in the engine compartment because on my new California I noticed some stress fractures in the plastic engine cover at the attachment points anteriorly. I had the dealer replace the part and the replacement had no stickers on it. Ferrari sent them separately and had they were applied later. My question was meant to bring focus to a potential repair etc. that you may not have known about.

    Beautiful car too btw....

    Had a Porsche in front of me during the Hocking Hills drive last weekend. It went quite well even though I could keep up with it, but it only said WOOOOSSSSHHHHH ... sad sound for so much power! The Ferraris and Lambos sound much better.

    Agree. When that turbo kicks in it sounds like a ventilator! But, he's happy and I have the F car. What's to complain about?

    Although I don't think I can keep up with it in the short run, but I can't keep up with a motorbike either. See them in the end sipping my beer, though!
