Nick: Excellent video. Keep up the good work!

By the way, this 'luggage net in passenger footwell' (option 581 and N/C) is seldom ordered on any 991 by dealers in the USA. I bet it's more popular in Europe, where it's a tradition on car interiors.

You might be right. Regardless, it does not hold much.

It can hold any one of these options. That might be enough.

Are you happy with it?

Nick - great video! Very well done, thanks for sharing your experiences. I'm sure everyone (PDK, manual person, whatever) can agree on is that the car is such a blast to drive!

Great video. Just curious that with your substantial option list you didn't take Sport Chrono or Sport Steering with Paddles. Then you would still feel like the cool kids with a manual transmission because it's just as good (when you want to shift manually)

Also, your video confirmed that I was definitely right in refusing to take the sunroof - man that would drive me crazy!

Correction, just saw your next video. I see you do have SC and you clearly explained that you're happy with the MF Steering and buttons :-)

Wouldn't life be boring if we all had the same taste.

Incidentally, I made the mistake of not buying the Sport Techno wheels, didn't realise it included the coloured crest until about a week before my car arrived, which would have swayed my decision.

Happy motoring!

Yes I am pretty sure that sunroof problem is a venting issue as it only happens on very very cold days and if you put the air on recycle it stops immediately. Taking it back next week to get sorted hopefully.

Agree, the net is pretty shallow. But on a weekend trip it held the iPad just fine!
