Dont agree at all with your statement actually. The HRE P40 ur referring to is also a mesh but it is a 7 spoke wheel not 8 spoke this like this one shown. The spokes are also spaced wider on the HRE versions than this version.

All the mesh wheels from BBS, HRE, Porsche, 360 forged, Vorsteiner all have similarities. I guess there are only so many ways you can make a mesh wheel.

I do personally like both this wheel and HRE P40's for sure. Thy are both different in their own respective rights and are classic styles and timeless imho.

Hmmm, well, I don't happen to believe Vorsteiner 997tt body kits are near copies of Techart. I think the design element for the 997tt happens to be in a rather narrow band and the subtleties are what separates the vendors. However, Wicked is a whole different category, but they appeal to a much smaller audience.

As for the wheels, yeah, I think they have a lot of design cues from HRE, but again, it's in the subtleties that makes all the difference IMHO.
