Angry Sore Knee

If you know you know... 992.1 / 2024 Base (probably applies to most if not all other models)

After driving for a while i usually put my left leg / knee up a bit rather than fully extended, that makes my knee rest on the hard plastic door handle area, does anyone make anything that goes around that handle to provide some cushion, i think i may have to make something myself but my knee area always hard after resting against that hard piece on the left when driving.

TIA

You could wrap a couple Maxi-pads around it.

Whatever you do, don’t go over to the Macan forum. Guys are upset that the GTS is “too harsh” and “they regret not buying the S.”

You’re already in a four door. The whole place is lacking protein consumption.

As for this post, unless this is from a war or professional sports injury, just don’t drive it that week of the month.

Lacking protein consumption is a great way to categorize it.

Wow, this IS a rough crowd.
Maybe I can help.
I have run into this exact same problem in other cars.
So I can empathize with the conundrum the OP finds himself dealing with..
Ex: After Turn six (Willow Springs) one needs to get comfortable before you get to turn eight. This can take what feels like forever.
So I've found that using roll bar padding (see below) helps with this ergonomic challenge. Red arrow for easy identification.

I am crying because I’m laughing so hard. Wifey wants to know why. Then she tells me as an 8 year oks she used two of her mother’s maxi pads to make twin beds for Ken and Barbie. Us guys missed out on an extremely versatile product. 😇

OK that was friggin’ hilarious but he did say “911 base”. Lots of people just have taste in automobiles and want a fine daily. And a base is plenty comfortable and a good choice for a daily. Now if he’d said GT3 RS…. no mercy!

​​​​@M3Inline6 you’re not allowed to tease because you’ve literally padded every surface of your interior in alcantara. You must have sore everything because obviously no one would do that for purely aesthetic reasons!

@tommybahama I’ll try and prove not EVERYONE here is completely unhelpful. There are many padded wraps available on Amazon in everything from fabric to leather, to ALCANTARA:
