I like the new tails. The front is ok. It seems that anyone with anything to do with VW wants those new LEDs.

[Frög]

Much cleaner imo

Well the facelifted Carrera has the LED's, I saw it in France and it looked cool.. But yeah, everyone is jumping on the LED bandwagon and its going to become lame.. Actually France is thinking of making them mandatory on all new cars..

Btw the LED's originate from the Le Mans Audi concept.. As you know I am sure, today's R8.

I'm with you on that one. I like it this one comes with the RSish spoiler though. LEDs are sick though and i like this front lip spoiler a lot better

I thought the LEDs came on the Astons first. Vantage came with LEDs and not sure but i think it came out before the R8

Leds are cheaper to manufacture overall. That is why many car's taillights are like that now.

Trust me I know.. They also last a lot longer!

But I am saying, they are trying to make the driving lights LED's mandatory.. Not the taillights or anything else.. Just a extra strip of LED's on the front of the car so that other motorist can see you better :???: Idk I think its dumb..

Not before the Le Mans Concept.

Here's an odd question. If i go to France, how likely is it my car will get burned down by some 16 year old? Really.

LOL! Depends where you go.. Go to the arab (Arabs mostly responsible for deliquiencies) side of town (the ghetto/shit side) and cars get vandalized.. My residences in Paris are pretty well placed and you don't have to worry about anything..

Just like everywhere really.. Go to the Harlem, and your shit gets fucked with.. On the other hand, if you live near central park, you're fine..

I see. I think i read it was new years when 100+ cars were burned in one night.

Is this like something the teens do over there?

One of the ways that Porsche became the most profitable automaker in the world is by learning how to offer customers a wide range of customization options for their cars... for a premium prices. The latest in its line of performance-oriented parts is a new wheel available for the 911 Turbo.

The new 19" forged aluminum roller has a design based on the RS Spyder LMP2 race car. Porsche has apparently devised a new center locking mechanism that uses a bolt rather than a locking nut.

The wheels are certainly attractive, but they won't come cheap. Starting in January, European 911 Turbo owners will be able to get the new wheels from a price starting at €2,950 ($3,700). There's no word on whether Americans will be offered these wheels officially, but there's no doubt that anyone willing to drop enough coin at the counter at their local Porsche store will be able to get them somehow.
