Wow. Hell of a starter car for a new Porsche owner. Forgot that ceramic breaks came standard on the Turbo S but must be since not mentioned on the options list. Gorgeous car. Given your description of the exhaust note you may have some kind of after market system since stock turbos are pretty quiet throughout the RPM range. Consider ditching the up front orange side markers in favor of clear ones. Cleans things up a bit for about $45. https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/PKCLEAR997.html

Nice ride. The clear markers look much better. Once again a stupid US rule, orange markers oem. The rest of the world has it right on this one.
Was in Philly a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely hated driving there traffic wise. What really was crazy was all the trash along the freeways.
