thank you very much, i feel the same way...
not as high as i thought it would be, the right vehicle is SPASM and i feel it looks much better and front lip better as well, will be doing -30mm H&R and SPASM wing without a doubt... the ride is very firm as is, i feel the -30mm will not affect the ride much more... if it does I will go full coilover route when available to market.
thanx guys.
thanx guys.

Looks sharp! How was the long ride home? Any base remorse? I feel my C2 is more than fast enough.

The pictures look great. I believe the oval exhaust pipes and the name delete makes the base look wider? Anyone else think so? Maybe it is the angle of the photo? Thanks for posting.

Love the car in white, looks great.
The two modes dont make much difference on the stock exhaust, unfortunately. The sound flap is the 'Porsche Sound Symposer'. Tested the feature out when I drove a car, was not all that interesting. Changing an exhaust will leave the PSS as is.
also, not sure if everyone notices... but with "model delete" the "porsche" get's lowered to almost center... they do the same on the Cayenne with model delete but always hard to tell because rarely do you see them next to eachother.
loving the car, coming from 997.1/997.2 and sampling two 958 Cayenne's... the 991 is my favorite Porsche to date...
my only questions/qualms so far as in regards to the exhaust, it sounds great but i dont notice much difference between the sound flap being open/closed.. or even know that it does that because a lack of info in manual and online..
anyone know the official name of the sound flap setup, where it routes to (behind that rear panel right?) and it's open with sport but closed otherwise?
the only info i've found is here: https://rennlist.com/forums/9066958-post7.html which is where i gathered my above knowledge... but the exhaust seems VERY prominent regardless of setting.
since the sound comes from the intake, I assume exhaust changes would not change/amplify the "sound symposer" loudness? but obviously would affect actual exhaust sound.

no colors!
i like the sound symposer... it just allows intake noise to resonate past the firewall... no harm.. exhaust soon for sure however..
love the car, at 1300 miles after 2 days and loving it... 15 hours in the car today was a blast....... will have a full review and a video of some of my favorite carolina mountain backroads....(not the dragon/blue ridge).... better streets where the speed limit is not even reachable due to the curves...
