Gauges that look painted on their mount. Further to the right a large center screen similar to my Panamera, but smaller font, more modern, more 911.

The build quality is impeccable. Everything tactile, purposeful, over-engineered.

There’s still a lot of road noise on the interstate - it is definitely not a Panamera. (I’m glad I chose to keep mine as my daily driver). But if you’re coming from a Cayman, or a 991, the 992 may seem somewhat quieter.

The Sport Exhaust is scary good. The sound!

The crested headrests are beautiful.

The nubbin is cool with an industrial, Teutonic vibe.

The piano black trim in my 992 isn’t as shiny or plasticky as some pictures I've seen. A total non-issue.

Most underrated option that I am so glad I added late to my build - aluminum interior. Really nice, subtle, muted.

Issues - it’s true, you can’t see either the right most gauge, or the left most gauge, no matter your height, seat bottom, or seat back position. But one little lean to your right or left solves that.

And I have a nasty, obvious speaker rattle on my front passenger door grille when playing heavy bass that I don’t have elsewhere. In fact, turn off the stereo or lower the bass, and the cabin is bank vault quiet, with nary a squeak or rattle.
