Gorgeous. Love the leather seat backs and the Burmester. One big problem and you should probably return the car. The steering wheel is on the wrong side!

The car rocks.

Why do they curse you with those license plates in the UK though?

That's really nice. But I can't believe they make you pay for cruise control and self-dimming mirrors. Talk about cheap. And the wheel is on the right side......

First niggle. The sun roof blind doesn't close tight, it leaves a 2-3 mm gap along the front edge. Porchse techs have looked, agreed it's wrong, but aren't sure how to fix it !!

We have to pay for the self-dimming mirrors, don't we?

Second niggle. The car sometimes forgets there is an IPod connected. It just doesn't show up in the source list. Disconnect it a few times, close the iPod down and restart it, and then the car will find it, although that's not guaranteed. Not sure what's causing this. Never had this problem before on two 911's. Same IPod, same lead!! Updating the IPod software to see if this helps.

That is one serious black beauty. Love the Jet Black Metallic.

Most of all love the wheels. Don't understand why they were a freebie.

Those wheels are the standard center lock wheels for the GTS.
