Default Wallpaper of my 992 4 GTS and general feedback

I remember being a "kid" and setting photos of other people's car's as my windows desktop wallpaper. Here is my car/ current wallpaper .

General spec of my car:
Paint: Carrara White Metallic
Interior: Standard Race-tex interior with Carbon Buckets
Roof: Glass sunroof
Rims: Standard GTS centerlocks
Rear axle steering
Badge on the back changed to "911"
Fire extinguisher (I'm almost 40 but I have the mind of an 8 year old when I'm not at work)
Interior inlays in leather
Standard Headlights (I don't like the DRL on the Matrix headlights)
Premium package(bose/cameras/lane change assist/interior lighting)


My previous car was a 2017 C4S which I used as a daily driver (similar spec to my current car but it was regular white and 14 way seats). This 992 is a much bigger car but it handles better than the 991.2. The 992 seems to have more "induction" noise, but the exhaust note on the 991.2 was much more satisfying (sport mode downshifts were amazing with the pops). The 992 burbles and pops randomly, I can't make it do it as readily as I did with the 991.2. The 992 feels much more luxurious overall and the carbon buckets are an absolute joy (I'm 5'8, 215lbs with a powerlifter build). My daily driver is an M4 competition vert. I don't feel as comfortable parking this car on the streets as I did with my 991.2. I got no idea why since to the public eye, they probably look exactly the same. I did go full PPF (I used legends PPF, it's great, I've put 14K miles on my M with it and that car still looks perfect, the self healing capabilities are insane and it's a black car with ZERO swirls.)

Talk about extremes in environments. One Porsche needs to be locked with an armed guard around it and the other Porsche can relax with its top off.

That is one depressing neighborhood- would expect laundry to be hung from the fire escapes.

That photo was taken in the lower east side in NYC. I'm thankful that I don't have to live or park my car there daily.

Thinking the same thing.

Yeah, good luck leaving your car out on the street, at night, for more than a couple of hours…otherwise, bye, bye.

That is actually a pretty safe area these days. Gentrification has its benefits.
