Does anyone have a picture of these side mirrors? How do they compare to the standard mirrors? Are they painted the exterior car color? Or do the have the black plastic trim?

Thank you.

Some recently published images.

^Thank you, BradB.

So you can get the Sport Design Mirrors (that are body color painted, like I want) for $600.

Or have the standard side mirrors painted for $645.

Crazy Porsche! Do I have this right?

BradB

Yep. I opted to get the Sport Designs on my November build.

I would love to know if these mirrors help with the buffeting. On the track, with the windows down, which is mandatory at most tracks, the buffeting gets unpleasant at around 100mph.

Within about a month or maybe a bit longer, the first cars with these mirrors wil be delivered, so I think you have to wait untill owners can report on it.

Everything can be seen on the 3D configurator. Then you'll see the difference between them te best,

We are starting to get reviews of the new 991 Turbo S that has these mirrors. So far I have not heard anything about the buffeting.

I have the standard mirrors and I have had no issues with them up to speeds of 130-150 mph. If you like the sport design esthetic or if your mirrors are causing buffeting, then I would consider a change. But as Suzy said, wait for the Porsche with these mirrors to be out for awhile to determine if they have the same issues.

I have read enough anecdotal evidence from track driving posters to warrant concern for myself. I am sensitive to these buffeting-noise-pressure issues with my ears. I looked at it this way, I liked the Sport Design look and was already looking at having the black plastic base of the standard mirror painted after I took delivery. Since the cost upgrade was going to be a wash after painting I decided to take the plunge and get the Sport Design and see what happens. Worst case, I get a mirror style I like. Best case, less buffeting and I'm golden!

AGREED. The Sport Design mirrors make good sense......:-)))

Here's hoping they are more than cosmetic. Good luck. Looking forward to hearing more (or less).
