Default 21 C2S Cab just delivered...first impressions...

My short review is OMG, holy f*ck!!!

Wow, my first Porsche and it is awesome...35 degrees out and drove top down to hear that awesome exhaust and still as warm as a bug in rug! I sat right in it and felt at home...stick/clutch like butter and location is ergonomically perfect...standard steering wheel is just the right size/thickness for my taste...the sport mode auto blip and exhaust sound are amazing...first impression build quality look feel is another world from the 17 M3 I came from...only 15 miles and it's sitting at PPF/ceramic guy so won't have back until Friday.

Pics coming (didn't have the greatest amount of space to take) and build is here, http://www.porsche-code.com/PMBFTTD9

Thx! It was shockingly comfortable with very little wind noise, etc! Was in process of putting top down and some FedEx driver pulled up next to laugh and say "Awesome! Congrats!"

Congrats! Always nice to find a fellow Chicagoland 992 (and Cab!) owner.

Is this a DD for you? Are you going to get winter wheels?

Nice looking car

I’m jealous of your garage too. I don’t keep my car at our garage at home, I pay to keep it in a another company’s garage and....ugh this arrangement is really a bummer

Given yours is a manual, what does the mode button actually do? How does it work? Educate me please
