Turns out it was a rock, stuck in the dust shield... Who would've thunk it...

But I did get a chance to line the 991 up against a 992... The 992 is visibly larger.

991.2 till death do I part...

They still wouldn't let me try the 992...

I've always preferred the look of the 991.2TTS over the 992's also.... The Shifter (me being able to bump shift it) is still one of my favorites of my car vs. a newer one.

This was a big part of my overall decision making process.

When they called me to test drive their 992 C4S I knew nothing about the cars and before I went off on the test drive my SA said "oh by the way, you can't shift using the Braun".

The rest is history...
