To be honest I'm not sure being a newbie, thoughts?

The wheels seem to be Porsche OEM from some 911 vintage and the lights are (according to the sticker) factory HID low beams with washers

Those are the newer version 2 Carrera LW wheels - the originals had more angular spoke faces (see post #15 here: Hardtop only photos! ).

New trip, new pics! :)

Took an overnight drive with the wife through Rocky Mountain National Park for a soak in the Strawberry HotSprings in Steamboat Springs. Exactly the kind of trip I bought the car for. Great roads and scenery and of course interesting high country weather! Top stayed down the whole time even during a brief snow shower at 12,000ft. Can't say enough great things about the car but must again single out the lovely wail of the Pedro's exhaust reverberating of the canyon walls and snow banks. Felt like we were up in the Alps. Can't wait to do it again. My buddy and his wife met up with us on the way back with his 88 Carrera
