now let the grudge and battle begin.....
Operating in the heart of Silicon Alley, they probably take the view that there's a new millionaire minted every day so who needs customer loyalty.

Don't feel bad - it happens just as much on the east coast. I only deal with Porsche salespeople that keep their word and stand behind their product. That list gets smaller by the day.

Unbelievable. Porsche should do something about that.

I love Reeves in Tampa. Their company policy does not allow selling over MSRP and the service is fantastic. Best car buying experience I ever had. Dean King is my sales guy and he went way above and beyond. If i'd go 4.0 I'd call him today to run my credit card and put me on the lst in the hope he will receive enough of them.

Dean King cell: 727-433-2693
I'd like it to be delete nothing, no options, white grey wheels.

No-cost Silver wheel option looks pretty good with the accents:

I think better then black and kinda goes with the grey stripe. I do like the stripe, but like the GT2RS little graphics best.

Black is Ok with decal delete I'd think. Forget white.

Since I am not actually buying the car, I don't worry about such problems But if I were to worry about it, there is an Armor All or Maguire's products that prevents brake dust from sticking onto the wheel. Works for street but not effective on track, which should still be OK since you won't take it to track with stock wheels most likely.

Good luck with that. Hard enough keeping the red wheels clean and I used Rejex from the start. White? Fahgettaboutit.

I did the wheels with the same sealant (Wolfgang) I use on the rest of the car.
They are pretty easy to clean.

The less you track the easier they are to keep clean.
