don't forget to add a light tinting to the wheels and the chrome gorilla spline drive nuts are worth the small cost. A silver hood crest with a 550 edition chrome rear badge rounds out Black Boxster very nicely.

Fuhrius, I agree $4-5K for wheels is serious Bank. But After selling my Miata with BBS Wheels and other mods I can tell you that those expensive wheels are investment in the resale of the car which will pay off thanks to selling cars on the internet. I posted my Miata at 4:00 on a Monday. at exactly 4:02 I had the first of 10 phone calls that day. By the end of the week I had over 50 emails and a guy flew up from Florida here to NJ to pay cash for my car's asking price. The guy called me from the terminal I picked him up, he gave me a ride to pick up the Boxster S and drove right back down to Florida! All within 6 days.
I really doubt there would have been that kind of interest if the car had factory wheels (among other things).
An extra $3,000 for premium wheels is not a big investment for a car worth over $20,000. (unless you have an old lady that doesn't understand you are a human being)
