Be sure to clean your irons and watch out for your black jeans with that chalk interior. Does your caddy drive separately or fit in the back seat?

Haha. Good thing I cannot afford a caddy now, otherwise he’d be screwed.

FWIW, I plan to treat the chalk leather this weekend with Gyeon leather shield.

So how come you didn't choose an open side spot when you parked???

and park the left side tires on the grass to create more space to the adjoining parking spot.

Must take the woods out


Lloyd mats for rear deck

great to see another 911 golfer! You should invest in some Lloyd mats for you rear deck, where I put my clubs. Love the chalk color and I was back and forth when I ordered my car. Decided to go with a standard S with exclusive options to give it the GTS look. I didn’t need the extra power and the difference is barely noticeable. only thing I like about the GTS is the standard wide body. I made sure though that I checked every performance option minus power kit. At the end, the diff was only $6k which is peanuts on a 135k car, but I had a number in mind being my first p-car. I will probably move to a 992 once my warranty ends in 4 years and will consider a GTS model. Excellent choice btw on alcantara delete. I would have done the same because I can’t stand that stuff. Good for headliners but not for surfaces where there is dirt and oil buildup.

Too funny and also ironic because I normally park like that ^^.

Just last weekend, some goofball just had to park by my other GTS.
I just stood there and shook my head. There was no one else in the parking lot on the other side of him/her.
