Turbodan · 02-12-2009, 04:41 PM

taken last year at dealer in Canada
I personally prefer the original version
have any Gemballa cars appreciated more than factory?

red wheel centre on one side blue on the other? how often do they change the wheels? or is this to help when doing pit stops

That is stock from Porsche, Porsche did that do signify which lugs went on the right and left, since they are center lock wheels, the lugs can't go on the wrong side.

do they turn opposites? one clockwise and the other counter? is this so the left side doesn't come undone? I had never thought of that. they could have just put a little L and R instead of colours.

If I remeber correctly that would be right(I'll have to check and get back to you on that). Colors are easier to see than numbers

It is correct.

Also Ferrari Enzo and Maserati MC12 have them in blue and red.

Right I knew both the Maserati, and Ferrari had them as well, but I didn't know which colors.

What dealer in the GTA was that?

Pfaff or Downtown?

How many Carrera GTs are there in the GTA? I've only seen one so far and it just zoomed past...

Turbodan · 02-19-2009, 12:32 PM

I think there are about 6.

Where are they?

So far, I've only seen one in person (on a country road between Kingston and Ottawa). I think someone from Burlington who has one posts here, and someone took a picture of one on Erin Mills Pkwy (in Mississauga)...

Turbodan · 02-20-2009, 10:49 PM

there was a yellow one at pfaff last week. another yellow one owned by an Indian guy drives it downtown a lot, Jamie (on here) sold his black one, there is a silver one owned by a chinese guy keeps it stored, a silver one I see driven around, the silver gemballa one I showed a picture of, and a few others that only see daylight once in a while.
