Might there be a site where we could download high res versions of these great photos? We could then use them, complete with attribution, as desktop wallpaper. (While that can be done with the current version of these photos, they come out rather blurry, presumably because they are not high res.)

techart 996 #3 is infamous around these parts

Hey Fred, Ive always admired your and Endras cars ever since your techart photoshoot pics started floating around on every porsche board. Thanks for explaining your self even if you didnt have to. Stickers or not, your having more fun with your car than Ill ever be able to (due to a crazy work schedule) so more power to you. Oh and thanks for all the pics youve posted on the net. That gumball 3000 race was some crazy ****!

Also, I never heard of a wheel change voiding the warranty?? Dario pleaseexplain - could it be dealer-specific?

at other boards it was explained that since the car is AWD changing the wheels will put pressure on the drivetrain hence void the warranty since the car is not at factory settings ... the only way around it is if you get the EXACT same measurements in a bigger size for example if you bump up to 20"s the tire height should be 1" shorter and everything should be the same size as if it were the stock wheels?? sorry for my non-technically correct rambling ... this is one of the deterents from me getting a Gallardo as I want to add character to the car with wheels to differentiate between other Gallardo's ... ?

Also if you replace a tire (flat) the manual states that you must change all four tires even if they're good because adding one new tire will set off the balance because the others are half tread for example and this will also add un-balanced pressure to the drivetrain
