FYI, in the second picture, that is antifreeze that overflowed. The car had 4 miles on it when I got it. The dealer is about 6 miles from house so it probably was the first time it got hot. From what the tech told me, they are experiencing this on a lot cars from the factory. Just overfilled. You would think that their quality standards would be point on with fluids.
Beautiful car! Congratulations!

You may want to check the cap on the coolant reservoir; if not properly tightened this will happen.

Hey man, I saw your car the day before you bought it at Hennessy. VERY nice! So nice, I put a deposit down on a canceled order myself and picked up one too! I'm in East Cobb. Hopefully we'll get a chance to run into each other. Maybe at an upcoming Caffeine & Octane?

Traded my 2014 991 S. Amazing the power they get out of these things! Absolutely love it.

-Mike

And Christmas Eve was MY birthday!

Just PM'd you back Joe. short delay in grabbing that coffee due to my now ordering the S. Try to explain a move like THAT to your wife!-lol! Well, the good thing was all I got was an "I told you so" because she knew I would want an S if I bought a non-S and told me to get one in the first place. Of course I said, "nah..you're wrong". Yeeeshhhh...She is ALWAYS right (I never said that btw-lol!) Makes about ZERO sense but I did it anyway.

Congrats to both! I got my 991 Turbo S last month and just now finally getting more used to the speed! The only trouble is that you can't leave you window down and drive faster than 37 without that really terrible baffling echo air since they probably made these more aerodynamic! That's my only regret since I love to drive with a window down so I can hang out my cigarette since I don't want to stink up Deseree!

Do you have the standard or sport design mirrors? I've read that the SD mirrors are quieter with the windows open.

^...you beat me to the punch with that question. I would have thought the new fixed mirrors had resolved that issue hence the actual redesign.
