Those crazy Germans. They put the steering wheel on the wrong side of your car.

How many miles have you driven so far? How is the new engine? oil consumption? suspension feel?

TIA

Question on the interior, here in the states the only blue is Sea Blue for the interior and from what I have seen it is darker. I like yours very much and hope that actually is the same as sea blue. My Artic Silver Carrera S with sea blue interior is somewhere between the factory and here., Still have slight hopes that it may make it by the end of the month. Enjoy the new car.

Only around 500 miles so far. Much more go than than my facelift 996 and the engine note is so much nicer too. Not used a drop off oil yet, but will check this weekend. The suspension is much more compliant than my old car and the steering certainly feels more direct. Hope to get a few more miles under my belt over the Christmas break so hopefully can post more details then. Oh and a few more pics.

Man, I know one could get used to anything, but shofting with the left hand just seems like it would be so darn hard to get used to....anyway, spoken like a true yank, eh? Enjoy the car!

Love your colors there perfect! But then I am a bit biased to blue on blue!

pred8or i love the red stitching and belts!
Greg good luck with her, she is gorgeous, despite the steering wheel being on the wrong side! That color is also lookinglike it could be my next choice... Went to a driving event a few weeks ago in the UK and boy it was just IMPOSSIBLE to do a quick shift! Funniest feeling. Kept banging my right hand on the door trying to shift with it.
