That's my favorite I've seen posted. Just needed black calipers to complete the look.

That is the "standard" turbo build dealers are getting. They are all spec'd exactly the same, with an MSRP of $130k as I recall. This and the Oak Green. One has burmester, the other has rear-wheel steer and passenger display, price is similar though.

I was under the impression the wheels are aluminum but with bolt-on carbon fiber side blades. Is this the case?

These shaped wheels are regular shinny aluminum with wide “spoke blades.” These standard alum blades can optionally be extra cost painted (@ $1,300/set); OR, they are made without the metal spoke blades but instead have carbon fiber ones insert blades replacing the where metal “spokes blades” traditionally are, @ a total $7,410/set cost.

Double correct! That ton of money can for almost all of us be put to far more useful other options.

I will start with RWS, and other improved driving ones.

What a beauty! Not my car but have been waiting to finally get really close ups of the carbon fiber wheel. As well as its side blades. Thanks to Porche Tacoma for these pictures.

Carbon fiber side blades look interesting. Anyone else receive their car with CF side blades. I am thinking of replacing the standard ones I got as they look too plastic like to me now that I have the car. If anyone has pictures that would be nice to see.

I have the Ruby launch spec above. I agree that the wheels are overpriced, they are beautiful in person though. The carbon Aero panels are bolted in from behind, which was good to hear about because I was worried some fool would walk by and pull one off or something. The carbon pieces are pretty substantial and are thicker than I expected. They do not flex at all when you pull on them. These wheels will have me very concerned about curbs for sure.
