Crayon/Chalk is a great colour and it changes with the lighting — light to dark grey — good-choice.

Could you take some close-up pics of the wheels please? There are no high-res pics of them I can find on the web. Are the spokes quite thin? And are they hollowed-out at the back?

Cheers :-)

I'd be willing to bet that they're I beam forged, or machined out.

Apologies for missing your question.

I felt absolutely no slip at any point in time. I had a salesman next to me in the car, so didn't go crazy on the test drive, but gave it a push on decent roads and it felt very much stuck to the road. I sat in what the sales guy said was the "intermediate" leather... so not full leather, but not the base either. I would have liked to have tried the sport tex, but have not seen a spec with those seats in our region (not even 991.2 either)

Can I ask what happened to your numberplate? It doesn't seem to fill the frame?

Good to know. Every time I step on it in my current car (2016 BMW 550i non-xdrive) the rear spins. It annoys the crap out of me. I don’t want any slip at all. Not even a little. When I step on the gas either from a stop or not, I don’t want any hint of slippage. I’m sure the 2S is much more planted than my car and I’m sure it has very good grip for most things, but it would only take one time when I got on it, and it spun, to make me regret not getting the 4S. The extra money is worth it for me. At least this is my thinking today. Lol
